Death of a Cigarette: A Story of Survival, Memory, and Legacy by Timothy Webber and Milo Grey

A single unlit cigarette survives Omaha Beach and becomes the keeper of a family’s memory. Told through the eyes of that unlit cigarette, *Death of a Cigarette* is a story of courage in many forms: the spark that burns bright, the voice that steadies, and the choice to endure without flame.

This is my first published book so quite new to all of this. Its a unique pov, but I tried to keep it as historically accurate as possible with the exception of one event. Its not a blood and guts war book, its more lyrical and restrained. Its available on Kindle Unlimited also Hard Cover and Paperback. I have a few Audible promo codes still available for a free listen on Audible. Those are at https://audible-promo.deathofacigaret...

I just ask that you leave a review if you would please.

Sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing it with us.
