Under Betrayal is an incredible and fictional story based loosely on the war in South Vietnam. A story of brave, tough soldiers fighting for their lives in the dense, hostile Vietnamese jungle. Often hindered by dubious and sometimes corrupt decisions from Washington.
A senior officer arrives at Tan Son Nhut, outside Saigon, South Vietnam, to take command of Army CID. A sleek, smooth-talking lawyer who made his bones in the JAG, the Judge Advocate General’s department. He hands Warrant Officer Carl Yeager a new assignment. To locate a group of murderous American deserters responsible for numerous raids on army convoys and remote bases to steal supplies, weapons and explosives. The morale inside MACV has plummeted to a low level, with soldiers never knowing who is their real enemy.
Yeager is suspicious from the start. His orders are merely to find them and call in their location, with no plan for these men to submit to military justice. Instead the brass has plans to send in a squadron of fighter-bombers to dump several tons of ordnance on their heads to wipe them out. Which may solve the problem, but without supplying any answers. Who are these men, and why are they attacking American soldiers? Is there some deeper motive? Or is it possible someone is lying?
Warrant Officer Yeager and Ranger Sergeant Ray Massey head to their last known location. They ran into the deserters and narrowly escape with their lives. But something is wrong. The men they encounter are skilled soldiers from all sides in the conflict, US Army, ARVN and North Vietnamese Army, the NVA. They also have an agenda, to fight the war for personal gain rather than loyalty to their flag. Except one, the mysterious ‘Colonel,’ who has a different agenda. An agenda that could explode the war into a new and even more deadly conflict. A full-length novel by the bestselling author of many Spec Ops books. These include the popular SEAL Team Bravo stories, Heroes of Afghanistan, Raider, Echo Six, and Devil's Guard titles.
