In the wake of her mother's death, Jessica Pearce Rotondi uncovers boxes of letters, declassified CIA reports, and newspaper clippings that bring to light a family ghost: her uncle Jack, who disappeared during the CIA-led "Secret War" in Laos in 1972. The letters lead her across Southeast Asia in search of the truth that has eluded her family for decades. On the night of March 29, 1972, Jack's plane vanishes over the mountains bordering Vietnam. The crash eerily echoes the one Jack's father, Ed Pearce, survived in World War II, when Ed parachuted out of the plane before being captured.

Incredible story, storytelling and narration.
Revisado: 05-05-20
This is one of the best books I’ve read in years, combining an unnerving blend of honesty, heartbreak, and talent. The author is an incredible storyteller, the story itself is remarkable, and I’m touched by the strength of the family it depicts. A strong recommendation to all.
