Killing Silently : American Sniper Chris Kyle's Lethal Moments (Sniper Chronicles, #4) / Sniper Chronicles (ePub)

An American sniper and his friend are shot dead at an isolated ranch by a fellow marine. The United States of America is shocked. Chris Kyle was no ordinary man, he was a legend. His illustrious sniping career lasted a decade and has as many as 160 confirmed kills. Kyle's stupendous performance in the Iraq War was so badass that the insurgents called him the Devil of Ramadi. The untimely and cruel death of Chris Kyle - America's sniping hero and legend, the loving husband of Taya, the doting father to his children - is a reality that his family has to deal with every single day for the rest of their lives. He is no more but he shall live through their memories in the hearts of millions as a hero and a super- human who left this world all too quickly. His brother, Jeff Kyle takes his legacy forward and continues to help withhold his life's mission of helping veterans. Through his family, Kyle's memories stay alive. Kyle's widow Taya Kyle, shares in her social media account how Kyle had brought life to her serious face, how they celebrated their birthdays, how Kyle smashed cakes on her face and chased the kids around on weekends. He was a happy man to have returned to his family. He was glad that he could see his children every day and they were happy to have their hero dad with them every day. He made them burst into laughter every time he hit their piñata and when the candy pieces scattered and stuck to the cars that were parked in the alleyway, Kyle would behave like a mischievous kid. Taya has moved on, so has the children, but Kyle will remain a pain in their hearts for all their lives. They cannot hold him in their arms anymore; they cannot hug him or feel his warmth anymore. All they have are the few pictures of the past and the glittering memories of a life lived so many years ago.
