Description
‘What would you really do if; you had more money than you could spend? Really.’
This novel depicts one of the most ‘human’ ways to handle the answer.
Two old river sailors, two old CIA Spooks, a lost daughter, corrupt cops, and a villain from the past, bent on total revenge. Add an old orphanage full of mixed-race and abandoned children, a half-ton of twice-stolen gold from the American War in Vietnam, shake well over red hot ice and serve in the present day of Vietnam; with a garnish of cross-border mayhem as it spills into Laos and back.
For extra ‘spice’, add new love, a wedding in the foothills of the countryside, loan-sharking for fun and loss, and a monument with a twisted message.
In modern-day Vietnam - fiction could be fact and the probabilities are, truly endless.
And, while you’re at it…have a lollipop, they’re free.
