    Vietnam POW-MIA Ultimate Survivor Odyssey Series

    About this series

    Three Montagnard boys befriend and protect Tom MacLaine after he escapes off the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos. Trying to return to their home village, the boys encounter man-eating tigers and engage in deadly inter-tribal warfare along the way. MacLaine's second attempt to gain rescue from the Air Force ends in another tragedy, not of his making. Upon finally reaching the village, he must go before the village elders who will determine whether or not he can live with them in the remote mountains of Laos. 
    Elizabeth learns Tom is free but lost in Laos. Much to her angry frustration, the Pentagon cannot help find his whereabouts. Meanwhile, she embarks on a hard-fought, mud-slinging political campaign for a seat in Congress. Behind in the polls from the outset, her chances of winning are in doubt. Nevertheless, she carries on like a true MacLaine.

      Tom MacLaine is surprised when a senior Viet Cong sergeant befriends and helps him get medical care for his wounded arm. Two POWs who are locked in his bamboo cage with him further surprise MacLaine. One is a mad man, and the other has been so maltreated he is near death. MacLaine tries in vain to help both.  A geriatric judge jails MacLaine's lawyer sister, Elizabeth, for contempt of court. She is the only female in the jail and sexually harassed by male inmates. Her uncle Harley, a fierce biker and brawler, comes to her rescue but cannot secure her release. Elizabeth conceives a clever plan to gain her freedom with the help of her best friend, the judge's daughter.  Despite being on opposite sides of the world, the lives of Tom and Elizabeth continue to be emotionally entwined in hope, spirit and determination to gain his freedom, too.
