Description
Veterans of the Vietnam War were scorned when they returned home. Thomas Grey was no exception when in 1969 he returned to the States. This was the time of the first Lunar Landing, the infamous Tate–La Bianca murders in Los Angeles, and the emergence of ethnic gangs like the Bloods and the Crips. Against these backdrops Tom Grey’s story unfolds.
Tom Grey was a combat-tested reporter for the U. S. Army’s information services. As his tour in Vietnam progressed, he became more and more cynical not only about the war but also about life in general. He returned to the United States in June 1969. He followed a whim and flew to Los Angeles instead of his home in the Midwest. His ambition was to become a big-city newspaper reporter. The story follows Grey as he attempts to solve what turns out to be interrelated major crimes in Los Angeles in his quest to become a newspaper reporter.
