Laos File

de Dale Dye

Set in the late 1990s with flashbacks to the late 1960s and early 1970s. The death of an old Marine Sergeant Major who ran special operations in Vietnam from 1972-76, and the discovery of notebooks he kept on those classified missions, leads Marine Sergeant Shake Davis on a shocking and potentially lethal quest to find out what happened to hundreds of American POWs who disappeared along the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Davis attaches himself to an official post-war stabilization mission designed to establish normal relations with Vietnam, but with a secret agenda to discover the fate of many Americans listed as missing in action from the Vietnam War. Davis finds himself back fighting a war he thought ended long ago and narrowly escapes assassination by former enemy forces who want to keep the murder of POWs a secret.
