Description:
John Locke sets out on
his most personal mission yet. To rescue his son from Hanoi. The son he
didn't know that he had.This time the war is personal and he won't quit
until it's finished.
A series about an American sailor of fortune named John Locke, who slightly suggests Travis McGee and James Bond rolled into one.
The first two titles: “Steel Tiger" is set in New Caledonia, “Bronze Bell” in Bali. The third, “Silver Star,” unfolds in Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. The three are a linked trilogy taking place in the present. The fourth, “Iron Kiss,” will be set on an island off Japan.
Locke, not accidentally named for the English philosopher admired by the makers of the American Revolution, is a Vietnam vet, former San Francisco narcotics and vice officer, the son of a poet, a San Diego boat designer and indeed lives aboard a 40-footer. He talks in a present-tense stream-of-consciousness blend of street argot, Nam grunt talk and Joseph Conrad, all enriched by Silliphant’s close knowledge of the geography and the cultures of Asia. It is the paperback thriller with advanced aspirations; Locke is cover-billed as the Ultimate Adventurer.
