Bill and the Whistling Death
|SEASON 1 OF BILL AND THE WHISTLING DEATH · 9X FEATURED · WATTPAD CREATORS PROGRAM · PERFECT FOR FANS OF A MAN CALLED OVE AND REMARKABLY BRIGHT CREATURES!|
A troubled veteran attempts to forget the past by volunteering at Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum, but it proves difficult when he's close to the plane that changed his life forever--the Corsair.
***
Retired Navy pilot William Beckington never planned to move on after The Incident and has lived with the guilt for seventy years. After failed attempts with PTSD counselors, his daughter recommends that he begin volunteering on the aircraft carrier CV-10 in Charleston, South Carolina. Reluctantly, Bill agrees, but his decision proves difficult when he stumbles back into the world of Corsairs, the plane he'd rather forget.
Seeing that The Incident still haunts him, Bill's new friends attempt to help him remember his long-lost joy; he attends Bulldog Tours, learns the stories of other veterans, and strangely finds himself near the Corsair more than he would like.
While nothing will free his mind from the traumatizing Incident, Bill must find a way to push past his grief and guilt to live the life he is meant to live--and rekindle his best friend's legacy before he succumbs.

Trigger Warnings (this book is a drama and touches on heavy topics, inspired by my father and grandpa's service in the Navy and my father's reaction to my older brother's death in 2021. However, it's a clean story.):
- War trauma (including PTSD)
- Survivor's guilt
- Lots of angst
- Accidental murder, and Bill's struggle to accept his friend's confession of being queer at first.
