The 1997 murder of a Vietnamese woman in Chicagos Uptown neighborhood brings Dr. Jack Caleb and Detective John Thinnes together to catch another Vietnamese transplanta deadly criminal known only as the White Tiger. The TV news report of a womans murder in Uptown leaves psychiatrist Jack Caleb flashing back to Vietnam and sends him running to his own shrink. Assigned to investigate, Chicago detectives John Thinnes and Don Franchi find the victims son, Tien Lee, curiously unmoved by his mothers death. Their preliminary canvass of the dead womans building and neighborhood reveals that Hue An Lee was well liked and well off, and she had never quarreled with anyone but her good son. Attending the autopsy next morning, Thinnes realizes that he knew the victim when he was stationed in Vietnamtwenty-four years earlier. Thinnes is pulled off the case when an anonymous tipster alleges hed been intimate enough with Mrs. Lee to have fathered her son. But Thinnes cant let go. And when a schizophrenic man shows up at Mrs. Lees wake, connecting the deceased to another Vietnam vet and to an unsolved murder in wartime Saigon, Thinnes starts a retrospective investigation of that crime. He solicits Dr. Calebs help. Tien Lee complicates the case by insisting that the paternity allegation is an insult to his dead mother. He tries to keep Thinnes on the case. Dr. Calebs therapy leads him to relive his own in Vietnam War experiences. When hes brought into the Lee case by a request to help the schizophrenic mourner, Caleb teams up with Thinnes and his partner to discover the identity of the White Tiger and to set a trap for the elusive killer.; EPUB; Crime > Crime & mystery, Bloodaxe Books<
