Attempting to escape his troubled past and his horrific nightmares, Elgin Thomas flounders deep in the heart of Vietnam’s central highland district. Soon exposed to a corrupt and immoral society–a society consumed with chaos and injustice, where the laws of man are subjective and God has turned a deaf ear–the war, for him, takes a heavy toll.

A thrilling rollercoaster ride that doesn’t stop until its surprise ending…
