Endorsements

Beneath the fabric of these extraordinary events, the thoughtful reader will ponder the deeper meaning of the right to defend one’s life and property, and the tragedy emerging from two teens trapped between drug abuse and risking their lives without fear of consequences. Kathy tells a very personal, authentic narrative showcasing the ripple effects of drug abuse and how Byron Smith, an honored Vietnam vet, felt alone in constant fear of home invasions bursting out of control. —J. Chandler, Research Professor, Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study

As a Navy Veteran I feel that Byron Smith was a victim of young people taking advantage of his generosity and his interest in being a mentor for them. How would you react to the fear of someone invading the privacy of your home time and time again. Even worse,your feeling of being abandoned by the very system of why we served our country. We have always been told to “Defend our Castle!” —Bill Osberg, Little Falls, MN

My family knew Byron from spending Thanksgivings together. He is a friendly, quiet person. My sister tells this story with all her sincerity and heartfelt sadness in a tragic outcome for everyone. —Cheryl, sister to Kathy Lange.

Once I started reading, I couldn’t put this book down. My emotions were so strong, because it was not only my sister’s family dealing with all this, but because Byron never got a break with the justice system. So very frustrating! —Diane, sister to Kathy Lange
