Book Description
For people that know early on what they want to be in life, whether doctor, lawyer, engineer or accountant, their career pursuit is easy. But for the vast majority, the undecided, they must choose their slot in life differently. They do this through the experience of rejecting a host of jobs that for one reason or another just do not fit. Nobody learned this hard lesson better than the author. In I Couldn't Say No, the writer shows his often painful experiences going from apprentice field engineer to expediter, from a series of sales jobs, to milkman and from bartender to store manager trainee. Through a federal jury assignment and a stroke of luck his destiny changed. At age thirty-one with six years of marriage and a family of four, he finally found what he was looking for when he took a police officer's exam in Elmhurst, Illinois and passed. Originally it was to be temporary until he could land a Border Patrol job...instead it was a happy twenty-year career. The story also tells of his childhood growing up Irish Catholic during the Depression and WWII, of his devilish exploits as a teen-ager, his military life in the Army of Occupation in Japan, the dating years, culminating with meeting a sweet Irish lass from Chicago, their marriage and family, and their early economic struggles. Later, the author proves what can be accomplished by dedication. Unable to complete his college at night school because of interruptions by police department shift assignments, he finds by perseverance and the urging of his daughters, he is finally able to earn a college degree at age fifty-two. The truthful tale as he remembers it, with its characters and dialogue, reads like a work of fiction. With its colorful anecdotes, it has warmth and humor, but more importantly, it shows the dogged determination the author had in finding success, excitement and happiness both as a police officer and later as an international airline employee.

He is an American, a patriot... and a disciplined commando trained to infiltrate and destroy. But a war game gone awry has turned Sergeant Mark Stitzer into a haunted victim of his own madness, a walking instrument of death. Now he is on his own mission -- a mission of vengeance, a journey into hell. Hunted by the men who trained him, lured by the one person he trusts, he prowls the city, as stealthy as an animal on its own killing grounds. No one, not the police, not the FBI, not the U.S. Army know how to stop him... and no one can predict the terror he is about to unleash.
