The Red Lotus by Chris BohjalianMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The first time Alexis saw Austin, it was a Saturday night. Not in a bar, but in the emergency room where Alexis sutured a bullet wound in Austin's arm. Six months later, on the brink of falling in love, they travel to Vietnam on a bike tour so that Austin can show her his passion for cycling and he can pay his respects to the place where his father and uncle fought in the war.
And so the book begins. But when Austin gets killed in Viet Nam it is not always what it seems. Alexis is bent on finding out if it was an accident or murder. Digging deeper she puts her own life in danger.
I loved this book and all its intrigue because you didnt really know who to trust. On the other hand I grew up during the war there and it brought back too many memories. Its a beautiful country now and Bohjalian describes it wonderfully. Place on your TBR list release date March 17, 2020. #fourstars #NetGalley
