What happens when a corrupt cease-fire goes wrong? Crack open this quick-paced narrative to find out. In 1974, CIA operative James E. Welch had been in Saigon for nearly two years when his wife, seven kids, and one black poodle were cleared to join him. The happy family reunion soon devolved into days filled with tension, then with terror, as the North Vietnam Army stepped up its military operations. Soon it was clear that Saigon was in the cross-hairs and the family fled the scene. Would Mr. Welch soon follow? How could he when the safety of over 1000 people fell squarely on his shoulders? In this page-turner, Kat Fitzpatrick weaves her father's daring evacuation with the history of the war and her family's own Vietnam experience of danger and escape. "It is a beautiful area and so quiet and peaceful (by day). By night it is war." letter home, Nancy L. Welch, February 1975
