I give it Five Stars. It is a well written book that draws you in with the intrigue and action in one family's search for their missing father years after he was shot down in Vietnam. Brinn's experience in the Air Force shows throughout the book going into detail about military aircraft and yet has a story with it that will keep you engaged. Spies, traitors, espionage agents and those in political power are all mixed up in the story along with love, heartache and of course romance. In my opinion, this is a good action book for the reader.
Book Description: Were American POWs left behind at the end of the Vietnam War—either by accident or design?
Colonel Tom Callahan is driven to find out—his own father is still listed as Missing In Action. What Callahan doesn’t understand is how politically explosive the issue is, domestically and internationally. As he begins his quest, friends and associates meet violent deaths. Aided by his Australian-born wife, Colleen, his journey takes him halfway across the world to Vietnam, China, Mongolia, and ultimately, Siberia. He is helped and hindered by unexpected friends and cunning, deadly enemies.
