In Search of an Identity

MW Burdette weaves together a stunning story about a US Navy lieutenant, John Bremen, who is tricked into participating in the Vietnam War by a senior officer. Bremen has his life planned out when he enlists in the US Navy, but the events that take place while he is in Saigon, Vietnam, in the early 1970s change his direction and engulf him in an undercover operation to track down a traitor. Bremen's involvement in counterespionage almost costs him his life. In this first book in a series of three novels, John Bremen becomes a super sleuth as he and his Vietnamese friend Klahan track down a dangerous and devious traitor who is smuggling arms into the United States. John's mission takes him to the brothels of Saigon and Cholon, the beautiful city of Bangkok, Thailand, and the shores of Kumamato, Japan, and transform him from a naïve junior officer intoa highly regarded CIA operative. John learns the importance of trusting one's friends as he struggles to find his true identity.
