Who is Jake Dumas? Intelligent, well-read and articulate, New Hope High School's custodian is an enigmatic man of mystery. Often scorned or ignored by students and faculty alike, he is, however, befriended by two people the lovely and feisty school librarian, Rosie Green, who seems to have developed a romantic interest in him, and the previous year's All-State, high school All-American quarterback, Blaise Honeycutt, who after finding himself in academic trouble turns to Jake of all people to help him bring up his grades. Jake then finds that it is not all about grades. His protégé is hiding a loathsome secret. But then again, so is Jake.
It will be a dismal, even chaotic year for New Hope High. As Blaise and two of his all-star buddies were suspended by the former, hated principal, Horatio Sharpe, for a senseless prank, last year's State Football Champs will experience their first losing season. Adding insult to injury, Cecil Meadows, a Negro, is appointed the new principal of the school during a hot bed of racial tension in 1963 Alabama. And then the Town of New Hope learns that its beloved high school will close at the end of the school year because a new school is being built in the next county. But as all that should be enough to shake up the town, it seems that somebody has been found murdered at the school. And it is Jake who discovers the body.
In this compelling story of murder, romance, unimaginable heartache and unfailing encouragement, two valiant men, one older and one younger, struggle with life's disappointments, tragedies and secret haunts in their fight to overcome adversity.

The Valiant Martin Lee Martin 9781440194252 Books Reviews
A fiction story that parallels a true story. I have read several books by Colonel Martin and found them to be good reads. This book had interesting characters and the ending of this book was outstanding.
The Valiant is a great book, and a must read. I have read all of Lee Martin's books, and this is one of the best. Once you start reading you will not want to put it down.
"The Valiant". The novel is the work of a mature author, well in control of plot and structure. Clues are distributed carefully to keep the reader alert and interested throughout. In terms of characterization, the main protagonist is well-defined and believable. The "crime story" aspect is particularly successful, keeping the reader guessing until late in the work regarding the identity of the culprit. The "happy ending" is pleasing and emotionally satisfying. It was nice to encounter what many Europeans would consider a "positive minded" American finish! Such a dénouement is rarer here.

Mystery novelist COL Lee Martin continues to excite his audience with his latest release of "The Valiant". I have read most of his books, but "The Valiant" is by far my favorite. In baseball terms, COL Lee Martin has hit a standup homerun. "The Valiant" is an intriguing mystery novel that includes a silent hero, a HOT Blonde Liberian, and a cop that doesn't quit until he gets answers to his questions. The Valiant will keep you on the edge of your seat to the very end. This is a book you'll find hard to put down. You might also want to review [...].
I could not put the book down. You'll keep trying to anticipate the next twist. If you're my age, it might even conger up some memories from the past.
Great Book enjoyed very much!
