War + Money + Sex = BETRAYAL!
Greed, lies and treachery from trusted companions leads to death and disaster.
In the midst of the Vietnam war, Anthony Brister, blue-blooded scion of a prominent Connecticut family and captain of a US Navy Swift boat, is murdered in a village in the Mekong delta. A friend of the victim, the senior advisor of a South Vietnamese junk force base, is ordered to investigate but is unable to solve the crime. Lt. Peter Walker’s romantic liaison with Madeleine Chi, the main suspect in the shooting, does not help his credibility as an investigator and he is relieved of his command and 'encouraged' to resign his Navy commission.
Many of the principals in the murder intrigue end up in southern California 15 years later when Brister’s sister uses her family’s political contacts to press for closure to the cold case. Walker finds himself embroiled again in an episode he would as soon leave forgotten. His unofficial but crucial role in a resurrected investigation charges his life with new energy, and he finds he is enjoying both the drama of the search for a killer from ages past and the evolution of the people he once knew when he was a Mekong Junkman.
Walker uncovers a scheme involving Madeleine, a notorious junkman named Van, blackmail, murder and possibly treason. Then it's a race to the finish: can Walker solve the case before the murderers get to him?

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The Mekong Junkman - Barra's Best Book Yet By Amazon Customer Paul Barra's latest book The Mekong Junkman is a good murder/mystery. But, it is more than that. This novel gives you insight into South Vietnamese people, their small town on the Mekong Delta and their trials from surviving in a war-torn country to learning to adapt to life in America as refugees. At the same time reading the book teaches you a little of what it was like for our military in the Vietnam War. It's fiction but Barra's vivid descriptions, story-telling technique and character development make it seem like a true account of real people and real events.

A navy base set in the Mekong Delta during the Vietnamese war filled with love, suspense and a mysterious murder By virginia billingsley Another page turner from Paul Barra. A navy base set in the Mekong Delta during the Vietnamese war filled with love, suspense and a mysterious murder. There's humor when a snake invades the base kitchen and causes an all out panic and there's snipers on the river banks that keep the junkmen always alert. It's another must read from Paul Barra.
