Synopsis

How do you navigate a river when the map is a lie? South Vietnam, 1969. In the Mekong Delta, the brown waters of the Bassac River flow through Vietnamese villages. The crew of the Swift Boat, Snoopy, is caught between two fires. On one side is a ruthless enemy hiding in the mangroves. On the other is their own commanding officer—a "Syracuse Prince" more interested in forging a hero's legacy than telling the truth. For the boat’s young navigator, the war is no longer just about survival. It’s a test of faith. When the Captain begins falsifying combat logs to cover a lucrative black-market scheme, the navigator is forced to choose: obey a corrupt superior and secure his future, or follow the "True North" of his conscience and risk everything. As a desperate crew nears the breaking point and a secret meeting at the treacherous Widow's Bend looms, the navigator must find a "Third Way"—a path of grace that avoids both the Captain's greed and the crew's thirst for a violent mutiny. True North of the Mekong is a gripping tale of sacrifice, the weight of command, and a love that burns through forty years of memory. Perfect for fans of The Things They Carried and The Rock Harbor Series, this novel explores the narrow path between duty to country and duty to God.
