The Killing

By: Hedeen, Paul M.

Which will you sacrifice-the father that raised you, or the nation you love?

In 1979, two Americans-Stephen Psalter and Nathan Depreye-were killed on a remote Cambodian road, their deaths buried beneath the confusion and cover stories of a waning war. Thirty-five years later, their children, Juliette Depreye and Nolan Psalter, uncover a trail of deceit linking their fathers to a failed rescue mission, CIA secrets, and the narcotics trade that followed U.S. troops home.

As Juliette and Nolan dig deeper, the old ghosts of Vietnam and Kampuchea stir once more-corrupt officials, haunted veterans, and an aging killer desperate to keep history buried. The Killing moves from Long Beach to the killing fields of Cambodia in a tense, elegiac exploration of truth, guilt, and the intergenerational wounds of war.
