DRY Bones, second in the SPYGAME Trilogy, begins at
the 30th high school reunion of a group of
people who graduated from an American military
boarding school in France. Held in Sin City,
Las Vegas, a handful of former friends unearth
old memories and old murders.
Someone wants to prevent the remains of a
former classmate killed in Vietnam from being
returned during the reunion. The school was
a recruiting ground for CIA operatives who
went to Vietnam during the 60s and 70s.
Master spymaker Robert Mackenzie and writer
Elaine Barton put the pieces of this puzzle
together by digging up bones in the catacombs
of the old deconsecrated monastery in France
where Elaine went to school, uncovering the
real story of two mysterious classmates whose
father, Etienne LeBlanc, had been a notorious
drug dealer, and by discovering the true
history of an antique dealer in Saigon who
knows where most of the bodies are buried.
Switched identities and phony pasts entangle
lives from Vietnam to France, all linked
by an enigmatic man named Trang Van Quang
and a jade Saint.
