I feel like I can't say much without giving it away but this book is chilling. Fowler is a very interesting character who is extremely calculating. The book gives a good portrait of the situation in Vietnam in the 1950s with fighting and imminent American involvement. I also liked reading it after I had been to Saigon since I could often picture the places that were being discussed. I would recommend it to anyone though, it explores the age old emotions of love and jealousy.
