About Gold …then Iron (the 2003 novel by Marty Duncan)

“…a fascinating tale of the second search for ‘gold’ on Minnesota’s Iron Range…The fictional plot is woven around the lives of real spies and officers who were part of British, American and Japanese Intelligence in the deadly years surrounding 1938. The author invites “the readers of this sweeping mystery to pick up the loose ends and discover where the Golden Eagle was hidden.”

To My Love: Songs of Regret, Love and Hope

Author Marty Duncan and Kaley Lee

My hope for the reader ...that you will find the embracing comfort that was intended.

Carolynn was my loving wife…

            I did not love her enough…

                        That’s regret.

She smiled and cared for us all…

            We hugged each other daily…

                        That’s love.

We were joined and lived…

            And still we see the future…

                        That’s hope.

Our spirits will join once again…

            In the great Divine Spirit…

                        That’s my karma.


What reviewers said on Amazon…

I enjoyed this touching, inspirational work of regret/love/hope.

My thoughtful cousin sent me a copy of this prose. I've ordered an additional copy, which I intend to pass on to a friend... seems like a great "pay it forward" opportunity.”
