Learning that an old Vietnam buddy is possible still alive as a POW in Vietnam, Remo ventures into locate him. However, he is afflicted with amnesia, remembering nothing of the past twenty years. Remo really believes he is in the Vietnam era. Hilarity ensues. This novel was a bit of a letdown of the epic of Line Succession. Finding POWs is one thing, but Remo’s memory lapses caused by independent events wear kinda thin. This is more of an attempt to be a Return to Vietnam type of novel found commonly in the eighties with tepid results. The highlight is that Chiun gets an elephant. He calls him Rambo.
