Vietnam 1965... Dale Captree is on his first patrol when his unit is involved in an atrocity. He saves the life of a young girl (whom he will later adopt as his daughter) but is betrayed and left for dead by his fellow soldiers.

Ill-advised publicity following the release of a novel threatens to expose their true identities. The arrival in the colony of ambitious young journalist Tom Bellamy in search of fun, fame and fortune is a further link in a chain of events that could spell disaster. His zest for life and love could provide a much-needed spark... or it could finally destroy Captree's precarious cover. The Deserter finally comes to realize that he and his daughter are in a desperate struggle for survival. This novel has adult content. Word count approx. 54,500
