Jack's Last Promise, an inspirational novel about Nick Adams, a Marine fighter pilot married to the woman of his dreams. "Always do your best and always keep your promises," is the motto he learned from his Uncle Jack and it has served Nick well.

But now he's at a crossroads in his life with a coming child and he realizes he has some unresolved issues and an unfulfilled promise from his uncle. He journeys back to his Michigan hometown to attend the twenty year reunion of his state championship baseball team hoping to find answers.

Can his teammates inspire him once more? Can he connect with his detached father? Will his uncle keep his last promise? Will he be able to provide a good life for his wife and child? The promise of the future depends on the answers.
