Vietnam, 1960s...
Dale Captree is on his first patrol when his unit is involved in an atrocity in a local village.
He saves the life of a young girl (whom he will later adopt) but is betrayed and left for dead by his fellow soldiers. In a thrilling escape from the war zone he and the girl find their way to Hong Kong, where they live covertly under false identities.
After many years they begin to relax their vigilance... but their troubles are only just beginning. Scandal, exposure to the deadly defoliant Agent Orange and ill-advised publicity following the publication of a novel threaten their hard-won freedom. The arrival in the colony of ambitious young journalist Tom Bellamy in search of fun, fame and fortune is a further link in a chain of events that could spell disaster.
The Deserter finally realizes that he and his daughter are in a struggle for survival.
