Murder on the Naval Base
ByPublisher Description
Beginning with a blurry account of a cold-blooded shooting of a couple, singled out while having dinner at an Officer's Club, the prime suspect is apprehended hours later while apparently attempting to flee the state. With over a dozen eye-witnesses collaborating the incident, little was left in the puzzle for the military investigators to piece together; especially once it was determined the two victims were in fact the perpetrator's wife and the man she was having an on-going affair with. After the shocking beginning of the novel, the reader in taken on a journey throughout the life and career of the characters while interlacing the technical jargon and vernacular of naval flight training and the nuances of the military lifestyle. Combined with a steamy undercurrent of lust, love, sexual fulfillment, jealousy and primordial desires of the cast of characters, the human condition of married life versus the structure and demands of military careers are juxtaposed against the strength and will of personal upbringing and ethical behavior.

“This story made me question what justice really means. From the outside, it’s a clean-cut case. Two victims. A weapon. Dozens of witnesses. But then the story rewinds, and you meet a man quietly collapsing in the home he built with the woman he loved. It’s hard to place blame when you see what led him there.
Behcet Kaya doesn’t justify the act but he humanizes it. That’s what stays with you. The emotional complexity, not just the crime.”
