In 1954, the French were defeated by Ho Chi Minh and his followers. Within months of the final battle, North and South Vietnam was divided. Peace didn't last long.

How far would covert operatives and world leaders go to reunite the country... and how far would some go to keep it apart?

Based on true events, this is the cloak-and-dagger battle between the American CIA, the Viet Minh, the French 2nd Bureau, and a gang of notorious river pirates for the greatest prize in Southeast Asia - Saigon. It's the historical account of the rise of Le Duan, a man that would one day challenge his mentor for control of the communist party and the North Vietnamese Army. It's the tale of the CIA operative - Lucien Conein, half-hero, half-scoundrel, a man with few rules and no limits.

The revealing story of a critical period few know about; the slippery slope that accelerated America's involvement in the Vietnam War and defined the tragic outcome.

For those that love history, Momentum of War is a must-read war novel filled with action, intrigue, and more historical events than you can shack a stick at.
