The death of a salty old senior NCO who ran special operations in Vietnam leads Marine Gunner Shake Davis on a shocking and potentially lethal quest to find out what happened to hundreds of American POWs. Written by the bestselling author of 'Platoon,' Dale A. Dye. Excerpt Over an azure expanse of Pacific, the Air Force C-141 Starlifter climbed, engines sucking and blowing, clawing for altitude; nosing toward a course that would lead to land at Hanoi's Noi Bai Airport. He knew from experience there was nothing to see, nothing to do that would make the long leap over the Pacific Rim any faster or less tedious. Below them, for the next nineteen hours, nothing but an undulating carpet of blue until it gave way to the green expanse of northern Vietnam's Red River delta. He found a flat spot on a cargo pallet aft of the luggage stacks, wrapped himself in a poncho liner and lay down to sleep. Whatever future waited in Vietnam, it could not be as bad as what he'd encountered there in the past.
