Zane Grey 
The Day of the Beast 

"Our ordeal is over — the Hell is past and we must bury memory . . ." Lane, Maynard and Payson stand on deck as the ship glides toward New York, in the shadow of Liberty — a war-weary trio of soldiers, home at last.

Time has marked them, and the battles of France have left them disabled . . . but what awaits them on land, beyond the empty dock? Who will be there for them, at home? And will they ever be able to lead a normal life?
