5 STARS! "The plot is as good as it gets. I've rarely seen such a masterful mixing of past and present. The characters are as real as rain."
Why they still won't let her come home.
THE AMERICAN PEARL tells the 2006 story of QUINTYN AMES, a troubled government researcher who--on his honeymoon--inadvertently discovers that a female soldier left behind at the end of America's most notorious war, may be still alive and held.
PATRICIA PAVLIK has been fighting her own war for the last 34 years--fighting to stay alive and still trying to come home.
Both action filled and gut wrenching, AMES' pursuit of the truth brings him face-to-face with his own lies, as he is determined to find out why the government doesn't want her to come home; and then, against all odds, he fights to bring her back.
