Kirkus Review Excerpts: The Man Who Walked Out of the Jungle
Kirkus Book Review Excerpts: "The Man Who Walked Out of the Jungle" by Jeff Wallace
"It’s 1970, and George Tanner, a young American military police investigator, is in his 32nd month in South Vietnam. He’s charged with unraveling an unusual case: why did a Caucasian man wearing U.S. military gear walk out of the rain forest 100 kilometers north of Saigon in the middle of the night and straight up to an American infantry outpost?" -- Kirkus Reviews
"Tanner’s knowledge of Army procedures derives him as much solid information from repair slips and serial numbers as he gets from tough-guy action sequences—though there are plenty of those. Wallace’s pacing is taut, his characters well developed, and his Vietnamese locations authentic and beautifully evoked." -- Kirkus Reviews
"A well-written, thoughtful military thriller that appreciates complexities and tells an exhilarating story." -- Kirkus Reviews
