Summary
An exciting war story about the U.S. Navy men in the riverine wars of the Mekong Delta during the Viet Nam War. The novel is fictional, but is based on real operations and real events. It centers on Operation GIANT SLINGSHOT on the rivers between Saigon and the "Parrot's Beak" of Cambodia. Lieutenant Harry Quester is a Naval Officer on a destroyer off the coast of Vietnam when his best friend, Tony Zee, volunteers for River Patrol Boat duty.
Tony, son of Admiral Zee, the Navy leader in Viet Nam, is captured by the notorious Viet Cong leader, Mr. Ho and taken to a remote base in Cambodia, which is politically off bounds to U.S. forces. Harry volunteers for Viet Nam to try to find and rescue Tony.
Harry befriends Lieutenant Al Cattaglini, a Navy SEAL on the rivers. He encounters his old High School football buddy, Allman Buddinger, who is now a Navy SEAL. Harry, Al, and Allman plot to covertly enter Cambodia without Admiral Zee's knowledge to find Tony. Mr. Ho tries to move his secret weapon (his " Fire Cannons") within range of Saigon to support a North Vietnamese invasion.
Read the novel and follow Harry as he seeks to rescue Tony, escape from Cambodia, stop Mr. Ho's Fire Cannons and fight through a web of love, murder and betrayal.
