Knight Rising

Knight Rising is a fictional narrative tracing the turbulent romance between two veterans over 15 years. Multiple locations, including a Texas prison to locales around the United States and in the Middle East, serve as the backdrop for this love story.

“This is a tale about veterans who endure the highs and lows that come with military service, time as police officers, and the risks inherent in human relationships,” said Charleston, who retired from the Air Force after 20 years and now works as a Transition Assistance Program counselor. “My book explores personal choices, dealing with wartime trauma, and the concept of fate.”

The worlds of Jen Kowalski, a U.S. Navy veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Rick Knight, a former U.S Army soldier, collide when they meet while serving as police officers in San Antonio, Texas. They quickly form a bond as she battles her demons, and he faces murder charges for the death of two victims.

“This book will pull you in from page one,” said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. “Twists within twists along with drama, friendship, love, and suspense all intertwine to make this story one that you won’t want to put down until you reach the very last page!”
