Description

Blake Wrightman died during the Vietnam War. Not on a Southeast Asian battlefield, but on an American college campus. He died the day the bomb he planted at an anti-war protest claimed a small boy’s life—and forced Blake Wrightman to vanish. Now, after twenty-years as “Charlie Ochs,” Cape Cod lobsterman, Blake finds out that the feds are closing in. But a vengeful G-man gives Charlie a choice: face the music or help smoke out the beautiful hardcore radical who seduced him into the show more anti-war movement back in the ’60s. So begins a long, strange trip for the former Blake Wrightman, as he revisits the scene of a deadly revolution that didn’t end with the Vietnam War—and is about to claim a few more casualties. . . . Suspense. Thriller. Fiction. Mystery. show less

Once you can decipher the different characters and different time frames, this novel is riveting! You see the viewpoint of many different characters and also, time flips back and forth from past to the present. But you really become involved in the main character, Charlie and want to see everything work out for him. As the story unfolds, it gets more and more intense. This is a very good read!
