The Final Click explores memory the way soldiers experience it—fragmented yet vivid, carrying hopes, dreams, and quiet fears of never making it home. This powerful novella captures the tension between a soldier’s life at war and the future he longs to share with family, illuminating the emotional aftershocks of combat long after it ends. It honors the resilience required to hold onto love and hope amid uncertainty, and the moments of grace that ultimately sustain us.

Told through a series of vivid, poignant vignettes, The Final Click traces the journey of James, a soldier, a leader, and above all, a father. From dusty battlefields in the mountains of Afghanistan to quiet suburban sidelines back home, these "snapshots" reveal a man caught between two worlds—each demanding, each defining. 

For readers of The Things They Carried and Tuesdays with Morrie, this novella offers a brief but powerful window into the emotional aftershocks of the Global War on Terror. It is a tribute to the quiet battles fought on the ground and in the mind, and the moments of love and grace that keep a man whole.

Compact enough to be read in a single sitting, The Final Click is meant to be felt—and passed on.
