Book description
Young Cape Cod public defender and commercial fisherman Michael
Decastro ventures to Saigon with his father, a Vietnam War vet, to
come to the aid of his long-lost client and love-interest Tuki Aparecio.
The half-Vietnamese, half-African American diva is in a fight of her
life with a mysterious dragon lady from Indochina's underworld. At
stake is an antique ruby in Tuki's possession...and the mortal souls
of everyone Decastro loves.
Ghosts that the Decastros and Tuki carry with them from Cape Cod and
Southeast Asia will have their day.
"Peffer makes his characters sing. This intense, gritty and
grim story is not for the faint of heart. But such passion!"
