The officers' club

Peters, Ralph 1952- (Author).

Summary: "Spring 1981. Vietnam is over, but the repercussions linger. The military strives to recover as society reels from the excesses of the 1970's...A sinister beauty and a dutiful soldier...a Hollywood lawyer running from a dirty past and a cast-off vet who seems to have no future...dueling drug gangs along the Mexican border...and the mutilated remains of a female lieutenant. Stunning, promiscuous, and brilliant at spotting the weaknesses in others, Jessie Lamoureaux may have been killed by a jealous lover, a drug smuggler - or a ghost from a life she hoped she had left behind. Was her murderer the Green Beret she betrayed? The captain whose marriage she shattered? The senior officer hoping to save her from herself? A female sergeant fighting for dignity in a man's world? Or a fellow lieutenant with a secret of his own? In this gritty tale of young men and women torn between the laws of the land and the laws of the heart, a dark journey leads from a moonlit beach in Mexico to mayhem in Iran - then back to a country looking for its soul."--Inside front cover.
