The Cowboy and the Chicken House: Love Behind Enemy Lines

It’s one of the worst times in world history: World War II. Jack Dodds is a young hometown hero serving his country as a P-51 fighter pilot. And then the danger of the times comes calling for him.

Jack’s aircraft is crippled, and he makes an emergency landing behind enemy lines in the thick trees of the Ardennes.

But Jack’s story doesn’t end there. In fact, it is just the beginning. He is rescued by an amazing and colorful group of Belgian and French resistance fighters who operate out of what they affectionately call the Chicken House. Jack joins these allies to continue his mission to beat the Nazis. In one more surprising twist, he and one of the resistance members fall in love, now enduring together the challenges of a world torn apart by war.

Captain Lee Levenson, a retired international airline pilot who has flown many WWII-era warbirds, has written a fast-paced novel that is at times a thriller and then a romance and then back again. More than that, The Cowboy and the Chicken House is a love letter to the brave men and women of the Comet Line, a resistance group who lived, breathed, and laid their lives down for justice and freedom. Their stories from WWII remain powerful today.
