From the author of The Amazon of Ray Goldberg Rivera comes another powerful, entertaining and extraordinary saga based on a true life adventure.When soldier Ben Kovner is sent to Vietnam he discovers there is more to war than combat. People still go to work, get married, and raise children, only do so without any expectation of a tomorrow. Determined to make the best of a bad situation, he studies the language, starts a business, moves into a villa and falls in love - all while fulfilling his military duties. From dangerous sorties to an armoire stuffed with cash, a chauffeur-driven car, membership in the exclusive Club Nautique de Saigon and sex with bargirls, it's a sensational life until an explosion of consciousness leads him to question the very morality of right and wrong, only to conclude it doesn't really exist, but within every choice there's an inescapable consequence.
