This is a seriously good book. It's about the Vietnam war and one of the many brilliant sentences in there describes that conflict as, 'a Cold War chess match played in air-conditioned rooms by white men wearing suits and lies.' The writing is of that standard throughout, and within that writing is a tense and high stakes thriller. But it's also funny as flip. Please read it.
