Book Synopsis

Bash is a spy, a special kind of spy, caught up in the devious intrigue of naval Intelligence during the war in Vietnam. He's handsome, clever, and smart—essential prerequisites for honey trap assignments. He seduces foreign agents and is well aware that they welcome his intentions if only to gather intelligence of their own.

What he doesn't know is that they have another purpose as well—a double or triple agenda to get from him the secret he doesn't even realize he knows. Bash lives in a world of lies, half-truths at best, as befitting his role. But this unknown secret insinuates itself to the point that he becomes awash in his own paranoia.

The action careens from those spy days to the present and back again—in New York, Paris, Hong Kong, London, Saigon, Washington, East Germany—culminating in the secret all had sought, a secret so hidden that it threatens his present life twenty years later.
