Boston, 1985. Gordon Stevenson, the former ambassador of Laos, has been getting death threats, and he demands private investigator Andy Roark take the case.

Boston, 1985. Private Investigator and Vietnam vet Andy Roark is hired by an old army buddy worried about his rebellious teenager daughter. Roark's investigation quickly leads him to Boston's unsavory Combat Zone - and to Judy's new boyfriend, the drug-dealing K-nice. But then Judy vanishes, and the clock starts ticking in earnest ...

"1985, Boston. In Vietnam, Andy Roark witnessed death and horrifying destruction. But for the soldiers who made it back alive, there are other casualties of war--the loss of tenderness, trust, and connection. Still feeling adrift, Andy has struck up a welcome friendship with Nguyen, a Vietnamese restaurant owner. Sipping beer and trading memories after the restaurant shutters, Andy gradually learns of the extraordinary lengths Nguyen took to flee Saigon shortly after its fall. Andy's latest case, too, has ties to Vietnam. His new client, a young Vietnamese woman, hires him to investigate her uncle's murder. Andy discovers a connection to a group of refugees determined to overthrow the communist government--and extorting local business owners to raise funds. The search for more answers takes Andy to D.C. and San Francisco, and into a web of political and personal betrayal. For near the heart of this mystery is a link to Nguyen's daring escape. Decades have passed, but sometimes the price of freedom twists allies into enemies, loyalties into betrayals, and truth into lies..."--Back cover
