Shades of Pale

About the Book

Vietnam.

Deep in the bush, a long-range recon patroller calls for extraction. A helicopter pilot goes in for him, but the soldier, Markham, has some unfinished business to take care of first. And the pilot, Brown, finds himself more involved than he ever bargained for.

It's ten years later, and this unlikely pair meet again. The reason more bizarre then the first time.

Markham has a family now, and makes a living on the water. But he only goes out at night. Brown still flies helicopters, covering 'special projects' for a shadowy executive-one of them smuggling cocaine.

Tied in Vietnam, a world away, the former soldiers are now together again. And not under so different circumstances.
