Summary: Shooting an Albatross is a fast-paced and highly compelling novel based on historical fact. In 1943, we were at war and it was the only year in our history that the PGA canceled the full season of professional golf. It was also the year that the 170th Field Artillery Battalion of the U.S. Army took over the El Rancho Golf Course in Los Angeles, California, leaving the movie moguls living along the back side of the course torn between feeling disgruntled and patriotic. What follows is a psychological thriller worthy of the best war movies made, with resentment at the core and murder at the heart.
