SAVING TRES RIOS                                        JOHN WITZEL

Retired Air Force Sergeant Robert Madden thought the war was behind him, but as he entered Tres Rios, New Mexico, a new war was just beginning. When Madden stops at Tres Rios, New Mexico on his way to California to pursue a doctorate in education, he doesn't expect to stay past lunch. A run-in with the local drug lord halts all of his plans. To escape from a corrupt police force and legal action, Madden is given a choice in punishment-state prison or a year of teaching troubled kids at the local rural school. Faced with the toughest school he has ever experienced and a drug lord with a score to settle, he must use all of his training to survive and protect his students.

PAT'S REVIEW

The story follows Air Force Sargent Robert Madden from the jungles of Colombia to Florida and then being stuck in a small town in New Mexico. This is where most of the action takes place. The story is fast-paced and easy to follow along. The author is able to tie in different parts of Sargent Madden’s life to keep the story moving along so that there are no boring parts. I found this to be a very good story and very entertaining. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 4 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com
