Appartient à la sérieCreasy (Book 5)
The latest Creasy adventure takes our hero to Vietnam and Cambodia, ostensibly on a mission to rescue a US serviceman taken prisoner twenty-six years earlier during the Vietnam war. In reality, however,the mission is a decoy organised by a sadistic Eurasain woman, Connie Crum, who is a high-ranking officer of the Khmer Rouge. She has long harboured a grudge against Creasy who was responsible for the death of her father. A cat and mouse game between the two principles ensues, as each tries to out guess the other, resulting in a climactic shoot-out in a heavily mined and guarded Buddhist temple hidden in the Cambodian jungle.

“I don’t know. But it will end in death. Theirs or mine. It always does...”
That’s my Creasy! To a T!
This was a good read. Creasy sets off to find out if an old buddy from Vietnam is still alive. And he enlists his usual crew of friends and they get their usual results.
This book wasn’t as personal as the previous four. Creasy doesn’t hang out in Gozo and his family there is barely mentioned. And I think his daughter only gets one line! Also, the ending is much too quick, too anticlimactic.
But the epilogue made me smile. And so does/did Creasy. I’m gonna miss him. (
