from the cover:
In a once-beautiful land now a warzone, three people are thrown together by love and conflict, chaos and intrigue: In the middle of a war devastating a country she loves, Helen Adams, a photojournalist, rushes through a ruined city to catch a plane out. With her is her lover, Linh. He is caught between the woman he can't bear to be parted from and his homeland Vietnam.
Years before, at the start of the war, another love was tested on the same ground. Sam Darrow - driven, cynical, largen-than-life photographer - was Helen's greatest passion and fiercest competitor, Linh his assistant. Powered by their adrenaline and outrage, they become a part of the war as well as its chroniclers, launching themselves into more and more dangerous situations. Then, tragedy strikes.
Now Helen must once again face a terrible choice - between a man she loves and a life she cannot leave behind.

March 2019:
I finally wanted to read this book as I found it on the wishlist of one of the BC convention attendees. I read about 20 pages last night and then decided I am not in the mood for war so I will let the book go unread and rather surprise someone at the convention.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

The book will travel with other books in a box to chawoso, who will kindly put it for me on "the wishlist book table" at the BC Convention in Mainz. This is to fullfill a wish for sakirmo in Finland.
I hope you will enjoy the book and of course the convention.

Took me quite a while to finish this one & there were times when I wasn't all that keen on the writing, but towards the end I got more and more drawn to the events and people. Author's descriptions are amazing, so lively that you can literally SEE what's going on in front of you... I didn't care so much about the ongoing love/relationship drama but that's something you just have to put up with in most books, I guess :P
