Dog Soldiers by Robert Stone is $1.99 at Amazon US.

National Book Award Winner: A “harrowing” novel of the Vietnam era filled with “white-knuckled suspense” (Time).

In Saigon during the waning days of the Vietnam War, a small-time journalist named John Converse thinks he’ll find action—and profit—by getting involved in a heroin shipment. But back in the States, things go horribly wrong.

From the New York Times–bestselling author of Damascus Gate, Dog Soldiers is “a dark descendant of Conrad’s and Hemingway’s adventure stories,” perfectly capturing the underground mood of America in the 1970s, when amateur drug dealers and hippies encountered profiteering cops and professional killers—and the price of survival was dangerously high (The New York Times Book Review).
