FALMOUTH, Mass. - TelAve -- Local author and Coast Guard veteran P.J. Lyons announces the release of his memoir, Hold Fast: A man's journey through grief, fatherhood, and the quiet war of PTSD. Speaking to maritime and military communities across New England and beyond, Lyons explores the "quiet war" that began after the sudden death of his brother and continued through his years of service, marriage, and raising four children on the Cape.

Hold Fast is not a story of battlefield heroics, but of the domestic battle to "come home" after the armor of service begins to crack. From migrant rescues at sea to coaching at the hockey rink to the kitchen floor, Lyons provides a brutally honest look at how PTSD unravels a life and the messy, beautiful process of putting it back together.

"I wrote this for the men who feel like they have to stay silent to keep their families afloat," says Lyons. "I wanted to show that the fog of PTSD doesn't mean the journey is over; it just means you need a new way to navigate."
