Tasked with covering up a tabloid report about high-ranking officers, US Army CID Agents George Sueno and Ernie Bascomdiscover a dark web of systemic issues that have potentially fatal consequences. South Korea, 1970s- Sergeant First Class Cecil B. Harvey, a senior NCO in charge of 8th Army' s classified documents, has long been a friend (willing or unwilling) to Sergeants George Sueno and Ernie Bascom. So when he goes missing with a top-secret document that even a glance at could get an officer court-martialed, Sueno and Bascom take it upon themselves to find him. Meanwhile, Overseas Observer reporter Katie Byrd Worthington is back to make life difficult for top Army brass. When she lands in a Korean jail cell, Sueno and Bascom are sent to get her out-and negotiate against the publication of an incriminating story about the mistreatment of women in the military that could land important officials in hot water. But what they learn will make it hard for them to stay silent.
