Saigon Station IV

Ghost Killers

De: Eric Meyer

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The Vietnam War never ended for some—it just got bloodier, dirtier, and a whole lot more dangerous. It’s 1985. The ‘liberated’ city of Saigon simmers under the fist of Communist rule, but some things never change: the air still stinks of fish sauce, secrets, and the sweat of desperate men.

Benjamin Franklin Smith is former soldier, a survivor of the Mekong Delta’s most savage ambushes, now running a threadbare ‘missing persons’ agency. He’s haunted by ghosts, real and imagined, from a war that refuses to let him go. Owner of a crumbling building, a loaded pistol, and an empty wallet, he is about to take on the most dangerous job of his life.

He is up against a new enemy. A vicious officer from the Ministry of Public Security, who bears a grudge against all Westerners. Especially a man who operates a business in the city now renamed after his Communist hero, Ho Chi Minh. Lacking the money to pay bribes in a country where bribes are a regular way of doing business, he searches for a solution, and believes he has found it. A Vietnamese woman pays him a large sum to rescue her brother, hiding in the lethal heart of the Mekong Delta. This man possesses secrets that could shatter the regime and get him killed if they find him.

Smith dives headfirst into a landscape of shifting alliances, sudden betrayals, and violence that erupts without warning. Just like it was back in the war, the line between friend and foe is as thin as a cigarette paper. Between the backstreets of Saigon, through the swamps and floating markets of the Delta, and back to Saigon, the shadow of the Public Security officer is always present, determined to bring him down. The city isn’t large enough for both men. One must go down.
