  America's first intelligence agency, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), was forged in the fires of WWII. OSS agents carried out daring and covert operations across the world, yet their critical contributions and brave work have remained shrouded in secrecy — until now. 
  Discover the stunning true story of Steven Bizic and the men of SPIKE team as they descend into darkness, landing amidst the turmoil of a nation torn apart by civil war and years of Nazi occupation. Facing the looming threat from fascists and the insidious influence of communism, the men of SPIKE must navigate a treacherous landscape where trust is rare and betrayal lurks around every corner. Originally penned at the end of WWII, this groundbreaking tell-all has only been recently discovered, shedding incredible light on the creation of the CIA and U.S. Army Special Forces, the chaos of WWII, and the people trapped in between. 
  "CODE NAME: SPIKE is... a trove of knowledge, inspiration, and wisdom... relevant in ways few such stories can be... it offers warriors, strategists, and policymakers alike a glimpse into what the dynamics of irregular warfare are, and more importantly, what they are not." - Lieutenant General (Retired) Charles Cleveland Commanding General U.S. Army Special Operations Command, 2012-2015 
  "Captivating!... and rediscovered by a Special Forces Green Beret." - Charles Pinck, President of The OSS Society

  Dot Line Circle Human - A dot...

  "Dot. Line. Circle. Human." is not an ordinary story. 
  It is a journey. A transformation. 
  A tiny nothing – a dot – falls to Earth and begins to... feel. Think. Grow. 
  Chapter by chapter, it changes its shape – and maybe, so do you. 
  In 51 poetic, surprising, and profound episodes, this dot experiences everything we know ourselves: 
  Doubt, discovery, retreat, departure, pain, hope – and the quiet power of change. 
  What begins harmlessly becomes a subtle reflection of our own development: 
  How we curl up when it gets too much. 
  How we sometimes stumble, crash, break. 
  How we reinvent ourselves – as a line, as a tree, as light. 
  And how we might eventually come to realize: 
  We were never "just a dot." 
  We are a story in motion. 
  With clear language, tender depth, and a touch of cheeky poetry, this book invites you to remember yourself: 
  your roots, your radiance, your humanity. 
  A book to read slowly. 
  And feel for a long time.
