'"Wages of War" is a Vietnam war story that has never been told. It's a story about civilians working in a war zone, avoiding the fight but not fighting temptation. The year is 1966, between two Tet hoidays. The first is a benign introduction to upper-class Saigon; the second is anything but benign. Along the way [the hero] meets a truly ugly American known as the Money King of Vietnam, a Corsican drug cartel, entertainers brought in by the USO but bound for different fares, club owners, procurers of anyting anyone could need, and a wild bunch of American construction workers who - for the first time in their lives - find themselves in a place where anything that can be had they can afford, buy, and be damned.' -- provided by publisher
