Very nice review of LIKE DRIFTWOOD ON THE SALISH SEE from The Independent Review of Books.

"An explosive collision of star-crossed lovers, Like Driftwood on the Salish Sea by Richard I Levine is a heartfelt tale of loss, longing, and the haunting scars that refuse to heal. Returning to the comforting embrace of the San Juan Islands after two decades of blood and battle, Master Gunnery Sergeant Mitch Brody must face the life he abandoned and the relentless love he never saw through. Finally finding peace means ending the war inside himself, seeking forgiveness he may not deserve, and opening the parts of himself nearly lost in the fog of war. A rich and tenderly told novel that tears at the heart, without relying on sentimentality, and putting words to feelings that every reader can understand, Levine flexes a masterful pen in service of redemption."
