Whiskey and Charlie door Annabel Smith

rabck from spoiledrotten; also have kindle; Whiskey and Charlie are twins & when they were boys, they got a walkie-talkie set and taught the radio code (we know it as how pilots talk), But as they grew up, they had a falling out. Whiskey was the daredevil and Charlie the staid one & one time Whiskey pushed his weight around too far. But then Whiskey has a terrible accident and is in a coma for months. Will he live or die? And can Charlie figure out how to forgive?
