Hiding in Plain Sight

This Book Is For You If You Are Still Carrying the Weight of Service-Related Trauma

This is not just a memoir. It's an apology letter for the damage done, a love letter to the woman who stayed, and a map for anyone trying to find their way home.

Hiding in Plain Sight is not another war story or celebration of strength-it's a brutally honest account of how thirty years of service as a veteran and first responder slowly dismantled one man's identity, marriage, and sense of self.

Doug White opens up about post-traumatic stress injuries, emotional collapse, and the fallout of a life spent serving others while ignoring his own breaking points. But this isn't a story about trauma-it's a story about growth, honesty, and the long road back to being whole.

If you're a spouse, partner, or loved one of someone who serves, this is the book you give them when you can't find the words. And if you are the one still carrying the weight-this is the book that tells you:

You're not alone.

You're not broken beyond repair.

And it's not too late to become the person your family still believes in.

Hiding in Plain Sight is not just a story-it's a bridge. One that connects silence to

understanding, suffering to growth, and warriors to the ones who never stopped loving them.

Perfect for:
Veterans and first responders in transitionMilitary and responder spouses looking to support their partnerReaders seeking real, raw stories of trauma and redemptionThose ready to grow through what they've been through
This isn't just Doug's story-it's the story of every home strained by service, and the message that growth, love, and restoration are still possible.

Give it to the one who's still hiding, or read it to understand the one you love.
