Wilderness of tigers

This sweeping novel recreates a time and place worthy of James Clavell and Graham Greene. Enter into a seductive world of lust, deceit, greed and revenge. This is Saigon on the eve of the 1968 Tet Offensive, a place where sudden death is only a quick knife thrust away and danger lurks both from the back of a speeding motorbike and in the bed of a beautiful, obsessed master assassin. Turning up the heat is Brandy Masters, a blond sexual adventuress whose long night of wild desires could end the career of one of the Army's most respected combat leaders. How do the abstract paintings by an African-American army deserter tie together her fate and that of Mark Buckley, a Special Forces expert; Kim, the Korean soldier; Newell Osborne, a US Diplomat; and Duat, the ruthless and brutal Chinese drug lord? These and the lives of other memorable characters, black, white and Vietnamese, together compose a vivid, unforgettable portrait of Saigon. None will come away unscarred. Some won't survive at all. This is Saigon. It is a Wilderness of Tigers.
