Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It was the Sixties. Jay-R left the backwater of Desolation Valley in search of romance and adventure, and Paris seemed like a good place to begin. His aspirations are time-honored and usually simple for a young man, and falling in love with Cait was as natural as.well, this is where it got complicated. Cait was married to somebody she now hated, but she probably loved Monet. And everybody wanted to love Monet, but Monet was Roxanne, a spy.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 308 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | When Major Del Ray Stuart returns to Saigon in late '67 after a two-year absence, he finds it sadly changed. Despite years of war, it is still an exotic city with international flair. But now, it's also swamped with military forces, and war refugees flood new slums surrounding the city. The peril of the war pressing inward is palpable to Stuart, who is a spy now. Mission: pose as journalist Domenic Sinclair to root out intel leaks and espionage that are undermining official military strategy. There are glaring and dangerous discrepancies between military intel and press coverage of the war at a time when military command has assured the President and the public that the war is nearly won. It's a numbers game: military command asserts that the enemy is decimated and demoralized, whereas contradictory reports say Saigon is being encircled and infiltrated by enemy personnel, endangering the city and the entire war effort.The military is feuding with the CIA, and local government corruption hinders Stuart even more. Frustration and old demons haunt him day and night. Life as 'Sinclair' suddenly becomes far more interesting than life as Stuart because of a beguiling young woman, and she soon preoccupies his every thought. However, when the Tet Offensive threatens to destroy Saigon, 'Sinclair' discovers that love in the time of war in a besieged city is a complicated matter. Only with the help of a brash Marine, a garrulous old friend, and three intriguing women does he eventually unmask a security breach in an unexpected place. But success comes at a steep price.

Jay-R knew or suspected most of this, but he was young and love is blind, so he overlooked the complications. With all of the love and intrigue in the Parisian air, what entropic vortex could suck ordinary people like Jay-R into a backwater sectarian war? Actually, there's no need to create an imaginary scenario. Look no further for the vortex than the weird, delusional schizophrenia of England, that plucky little island that stood up to Hitler all by herself (not really), ruler of Britannia and the high seas (not really), Lords of an Empire where the sun never sets. Again, not really. Tribal conflict and oppression reigned as the sun was setting on the Empire one insurgency at a time. The really virulent Trouble was brewing in England's own backyard, Ireland. It would take a miracle for Jay-R to escape the spiral, or a lot of luck.
