A Former Navy Chief's Exciting Spy Novel Takes on Espionage and the Battle of the Sexes

Reprisal by Vince Huntington is a powerful love story set against the backdrop of San Diego, Vietnam, Hong Kong and terrorist spies.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. (PRWEB) October 29, 2006 -- Reprisal by Vince Huntington examines how spies can infiltrate the United States' interests and why lost love might be the most powerful weapon of all.

Onetime naval Master Chief and author Vince Huntington uncovers the shady world of spies and the inner workings of the military, in an edge-of-your-seat thriller about broken dreams, the CIA, the Hong Kong Police and mutiny. In Reprisal, Navy man Paul Vincent thinks he has it all, including a brilliant career and the woman he loves. But suddenly, he is facing court martial. When he goes missing in action in Vietnam, sabotage is suspected. But who might be blackmailing Paul and why? And where is he?

Reprisal draws on Huntington's own gut-wrenching experiences in the Navy and explores the conflict between following orders and doing what is right. His background as a psychotherapist brings a keen understanding to the internal conflicts of his characters and to the notion of how the past shapes the future. Thrillingly authentic, Reprisal is part action adventure, part love story, and a wholly original read.

"A sure-fire pleaser meticulously plotted with wonderfully realized characters and exciting twists and turns."
-Marian Alexanian Duckwall, Professor of Theatre Arts, Michigan State University
