When an honest mistake shreds her professional reputation, fashion writer Tallis Reed heads to Saigon intending to salvage her career by reporting the war’s hidden stories. But in a wary city teeming with refugees and orphans, soldiers and spies, truth is elusive and danger is an ever-present shadow.
The last thing she expects is to fall in love with Nick Landry, an American doctor volunteering in a civilian hospital. Ruggedly handsome and intensely private, Nick has come to Saigon for reasons of his own. Bonded by a near-fatal ordeal in a remote hamlet, Tallis and Nick fall in love. When his tour ends he implores her to leave with him. But she has promises to keep. To others. To herself.
Alone in Saigon as the brutal jungle war rages on, Tallis embarks on a search for justice, a search that tests everything she believes about honor. About friendship. About love. But she must stay and redeem her past before she can claim her future.
A Season in Saigon is about one idealistic young woman gone to war but it illuminates the true-life experiences of the handful of female journalists whose struggles and triumphs there have been largely forgotten. An immersive, richly-detailed story filled with unforgettable characters, A Season in Saigon adds an important chapter to the story of the American experience in Vietnam.
