Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, this novel traces the quiet orbit of a proud Filipina woman named Rosie-seen only through the eyes of two men who knew her briefly. Each encounters her in his own way, yet both come to love and respect her, carrying her memory long after they leave Southeast Asia behind. Years later, one of them returns, compelled by the need to find her again. Ultimately, the story invites the reader to join that search-and find Rosie themselves-and in doing so, grant her a kind of immortality.
