Tim Siggia's New Book "The Twilight Tour" is a Gripping Novel Highlighting the Dichotomy That Can Exist for Service Members Between Their Military and Personal Lives
Recent release "The Twilight Tour" from Page Publishing author Tim Siggia is a compelling story of a decorated sailor's fear of facing civilian life upon retirement after a lifetime of distinguished naval service.
EAST HARTFORD, Conn., April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Tim Siggia, a married father, grandfather and US Navy veteran with twenty-three years of service aboard six ships and an equal number of shore stations, has completed his book "The Twilight Tour": a powerful and detail-rich novel drawn from the author's personal experience as a naval radioman.
Tim writes, "Marion Charles "Pop" Riley is a Navy man at the top of his game. As a Master Chief Radioman, he has reached the top of the enlisted ladder and has served during three wars: World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. In addition, he is also an amateur radio operator with an Extra-Class license and has become something of a legend among his Navy peers. Arriving at the Naval Air Station in Brunswick, Maine, he is now on an official Twilight Tour, which will mark the end of a Navy career of more than thirty years.
"All, however, is not sweetness and light with Pop Riley. Divorced from his wife and estranged from his only son, he sees his upcoming retirement not as a reward for his many years of service but rather as a threat to his well-being and a sort of banishment from the only meaningful life he has ever known. In addition, it becomes increasingly obvious that his drinking has reached a level above and beyond what is generally considered normal, even for a sailor, and that his presence at NAS Brunswick is no asset but rather a liability. He yet manages to touch the lives of a number of friends even in ways of which he is himself unaware."
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Tim Siggia's book is a poignant novel depicting a man who must come to terms with his personal demons without the cover and comfort of a decorated military uniform.
Readers who wish to experience this engrossing work can purchase "The Twilight Tour" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
