Title: One of DeMille's best
Review: Nelson DeMille can be very inconsistent in my opinion, but this is one of his better books. Despite the fact that it's about a truly ugly subject, it holds up extremely well as entertainment. Furthermore, it truly changed the way I viewed it's subject... the Viet Nam War, and the people who fought it.The protagonist is a fairly obstinate and aggravating character - an ex-army lieutenant who commanded a platoon in Viet Nam, and is now a civilian and a married, successful businessman. He's filled with so much anger about the war, that he's unreasonable with everyone, including his own family, which often makes his behavor less than sympathetic. Believable, though - a very interesting read and a page turner. A good story, and a convoluted but credible mystery.
