Description:
When Carlos Fuertes looks in the mirror, he sees a dead man. Son of an assassinated Latin American president, Carlos found his calling in Vietnam, taking deadly solo patrols into the jungles of the far north. He has fallen far since then, kidnapping children for parents who have lost them in divorce settlements. Hallucinations of melting faces and screaming children haunt his days.
Expand description
A phone call from the past offers Carlos a reprieve: an "op" is being mounted to kidnap an American embezzler from the South American country where he has taken refuge. As he submerges himself in the many roles that the mission requires, Carlos rediscovers a true self under all those layers, and a capacity for love.
Few writers can render the details and the tension of a covert military operation with such riveting immediacy. In Glass Mountain R. M. Koster has crafted a horrific and exhilarating novel of redemption.
