Rainbow Porter lives on the edge, watches his back, and occasionally drops into the valley below to lend a hand to those in trouble. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo his door comes lovely Eurasian April Bow, adopted daughter of one of his Vietnam buddies, to appeal for help: her father has been blasted to bits in his California home by a mine, leaving her orphaned, broke, and scared to death. Responding, Rainbow begins a quest that turns into a journey back into his own past — where he and a very select few did very well profiteering out of the war — to find out why accounts, literal and figurative, appear to have been reopened.... \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis first mystery combines appealing characters with a well-paced adventure staged in New Mexico, Arizona, and Mexco with a sidetrip to the Philippines. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecommended to fans of John D. MacDonald and Randy Wayne White, whose stubborn Travis McGee and Doc Ford would be pleased to figure in Rainbow's story.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poisoned Pen Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039816466672,"sku":"9781890208127","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781890208127_p0.jpg?v=1763608829","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781890208127","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
