A Vietnam veteran returns to the country that never left him. What he finds there will change everything.
Seventy-nine-year-old Dewey Curtis hasn't been back to Vietnam since 1969. He came as a mechanic. He left carrying something he's never been able to put down.
When his friend Huck Rogers needs a helicopter part from Da Nang, Dewey finally says yes. Two days in the old quarter. A bolt of silk. A few lanterns on the Thu Bon River. Simple.
Nothing is simple.
Within hours of arriving in Hoi An, Dewey is taken off a street in broad daylight by a Chinese intelligence network with unfinished business from a previous operation. Huck -- the man they actually wanted -- is left on the pavement with a fading dose of ketamine and a twelve-second video he can't stop watching.
What follows is a race through the highlands of central Vietnam: a rescue operation assembled from a former operative working out of a burger restaurant, a woman who drives up from Saigon with hard cases in the trunk, and a Soviet-era helicopter sitting on a pad in a French-era compound deep in the jungle.
But The Hoi An Crossing is more than a thriller. It's the story of a man from Chickasaw County, Mississippi, who spent fifty-seven years carrying something he fired from a gun on a Huey over the paddies -- and who finally, in the country where he left it, begins to find a way home.
Dog tags. A concrete room. A wall in Washington. And a woman named Rona who bought a white parka at Costco and is cold for the first time in her life.
The Hoi An Crossing is the sixth entry in the Huck Rogers Adventure Series -- and the one that changes everything that came before it.
