The Brackman Ticket
A faith-based historical novel about one man’s reluctant journey toward discovery.
When America enters World War II, brash Broadway star Brian “Jack” Jackson enlists in the Navy, leaving the spotlight and his glamorous fiancée behind. Aboard ship, he forms an unlikely friendship with fellow gunner Drew Brackman, a seminary student in civilian life, whose quiet faith challenges everything Jack thought he knew.
Back home, the women in their lives await their return. Jack's fiancée, Loretta, dazzles on magazine covers, while Drew's girl, Dorrie, runs the breakfast counter at a Manhattan five-and-dime. Different realities, one hope—an end to war and reunion with the men they love.
In the midst of the chaos, Drew Brackman's simple analogy of "The Ticket" provides a glimmer of hope to Jack and others around him.
A World War II story of unlikely friendship, hard choices, and the invitation that changes everything.
