It's been forty years since the war, and John Porter -- now a wealthy builder in South Carolina -- is feeling the past nip at his heels. When he relays his recent terrifying confrontation with "the enemy" from long ago to his daughter, she takes it upon herself to help him deal with his scars. Fifty miles north of Georgetown, a fry cook named Lisa Le is trying desperately to connect with her Vietnamese mother. But secrets from the past stand between mother and daughter -- and Lisa simply doesn't know how to proceed. Each of these souls is help captive -- until a modern-day land mine sets off a strong series of events that will unite them all.
