Authorized Cruelty

About Authorized Cruelty

Patty Fielding, a USO entertainer, escapes after her camp in Vietnam is attacked during the Tet Offensive ceasefire in 1968. "You can lose who you are here," her brother Christopher, stationed at Da Nang, wrote in a letter to her. Struggling to find the person he used to be, Chris got himself killed. On the run from the North Vietnamese, Patty meets a group of American soldiers and relies on army regulations to save her. She soon realizes these soldiers play by different rules. They are on a top-secret mission to alter the course of the war. Patty returns to the USA, a possible security risk. Being a general's daughter won't save her-not when she's an anti-war protestor. Fifty years later, in 2018, when Operation Fracture Jaw is declassified and after the release of the Pentagon Papers, Patty uncovers the lies and discovers the truth.
