Eddie Dare was a middle-aged San Francisco lawyer with a sinking feeling that the best part of his life was behind him. But back in 1975, when Saigon fell, he'd been a young marine guarding a warehouse behind the U.S. Embassy.
As it happened, that was where Captain Harry Austin had temporarily stashed $400 million, slipped out of the Bank of Vietnam in a shadowy, CIA-run operation.
The money vanished after the American Evacuation - and so did Harry Austin - until his body turned up twenty years later in a muddy street outside a Bangkok massage parlour.
When a man calling himself 'The General' dangled a million dollars at Eddie to find out what really happened to Austin, the adventure - and all that money - was too alluring to pass up.
