Description
""Somewhere in Vietnam's remote Cheo Reo province, opium fields are funneling millions into the Viet Cong war chest. On a covert mission to destroy the operation, Army CID officer Erik Rider encounters hard-pressed soldiers, indigenous tribespeople, spies, and profiteers of all stripes. Hidden in the nearby hills, a North Vietnamese force grows larger by the day and threatens to overrun the area. The Viet Cong are on to Rider's game and have placed a bounty on his head. As he hunts the opium fields, skirmishes with enemy patrols, and defends the undermanned US base against nighttime assaults, Erik makes a disturbing discovery: someone close to home has a stake in the heroin smuggling ring--and will kill to protect it. Written by a master, and as authentic as "Matterhorn "or "Going After Cacciato, Red Flags "is a riveting new addition to espionage fiction.
