His CIA handler says the woman he loves is a Vietcong spy. Trusting the wrong person could cost Duff Coleridge his life-and what remains of his soul. Army sniper Duff Coleridge arrives in Vietnam believing some lines should never be crossed. But after he is recruited to assist the Vietnamese Special Police, the values he learned growing up in Melody Hill begin to blur beneath the pressure of a war where loyalty is uncertain and justice belongs to whoever holds the gun. Duff's new American advisor is ruthless, corrupt, and operating by his own rules-selling weapons on the black market while dispensing brutal punishment to the local population. The deeper Duff is drawn into his shadowy operations, the harder it becomes to distinguish duty from complicity. Then Duff meets Lynn Dai Bouchet. Intelligent, enigmatic, and impossible to forget, Lynn offers him a glimpse of tenderness amid the violence. Duff falls in love with her, but his CIA boss insists she is a Vietcong operative using him for information. Is Lynn's affection real-or is Duff merely another target? Caught between the woman he loves and the men who control his mission, Duff must trust his own instincts in a country built on secrets. But refusing to surrender his conscience makes him dangerous to everyone around him, and by the time he recognizes the trap closing around them, escape may no longer be possible. Perfect for readers seeking an emotionally driven Vietnam War historical thriller with espionage suspense, romantic uncertainty, divided loyalty, and a young soldier battling moral corruption.
