Product Description

Review

"Suspenseful, tightly written...."

-- "Publishers Weekly"



Product Description

Armed with only a camera and iron determination, 30-year-old photojournalist Molly Drake arrives in modern-day Cambodia to cover the U.S. military search for the remains of an American pilot shot down during the Vietnam War. In this eerie wasteland pockmarked with human bones and live land mines, the people hold more secrets than the landscape. When Molly's camera captures a flight helmet buried among Khmer Rouge victims, diplomatic powers force her and her civilian comrades off the dig. But just as a typhoon looms offshore, the outcasts learn of an even bigger find. A mysterious expatriate guides them into the ruins of an ancient city, where they begin a harrowing search for the remains of an entire patrol of GIs that strayed in combat thirty years ago. With storm winds hammering their jungle fortress, Molly discovers that a war she never knew never died. Her survival comes to depend on her journalistic skills to solve a forgotten murder among these warriors left behind. In the end, her only hope for salvation is to redeem the lost souls that surround her. As stylishly written as it is suspenseful, THE RECKONING is a thriller that illuminates the fragile thread between life and death, knowledge and ignorance, hope and horror. Bringing readers ever closer to enemy territory, it is a hair-raising journey into one of modern history's darkest periods and an intense look into the hearts still haunted by it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, fast and fun!, 4 May 2006
By Mr. D. Peacey "Derek Pc" (Cheltenham UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the first book by Jeff Long that I have read and I have to say I am really impressed. I wouldn't say that the characters were massivly developed but the plot and storyline make up for that. I think Long is superb at building a picture of a scene and the action is quick and not at all confusing. Very exciting and kept me awake genuinely until the small hours, just couldn't put the book down! Some very clever twists that will make you question your own belieifs at times.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, 24 Aug 2006
By Mr. J. J. Percival "sedgemoor" (Hungerford(ish), UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Really liked Long's "Year Zero" so looked forward to this, It's not nearly as good, but then its not a turkey either and I generally enjoyed reading it. Literay genius is isn't, good pulp fiction it is. Keeps you going throughout and well worth it.
