Brian Vincent rushed to war in Vietnam and Laos as an impressionable and idealistic young man prepared to conquer tyranny with altruistic notions. He fell in love with the people and found a woman who pierced his heart and made him whole. Amidst the blood and carnage, Brian learned that love is as thin as a gossamer wing and as fleeting as sand in an hourglass.

Body and spirit broken, Brian returned home to Louisiana in danger of losing his soul.

The face of death perpetrated by people without a moral compass resurfaced with a vengeance. Despite his best efforts, he could not escape his fate and had to find a way to end the madness without losing his life.
