Title: Walking K
First published: 1998
Description: DeMott, a former FBI Agent, analyzed intelligence documents, Nixon’s White House tapes, Congressional Records, and interviews with commanding officers of Prisoners of War in researching WALKING K, the tragic story of a reluctant conspiracy lumbered upon the shoulders of each U.S. President since 1975. Crosscutting between dramatic battlefield scenes, heartbreaking torture, American businesses protecting their investments, and a continuing refusal by the White House to reveal the shameful truth, the emotional ending of this political thriller sadly shows why the United States Government stopped wanting the lost men of that war to come home, and perhaps sheds light on the government’s attitude toward the POW classification in wars since Vietnam.  

America's leaders haven't faced a Prisoner of War crisis since the debacle over POWs left behind in Vietnam.  Walking K is an exciting thriller that exposes the tragic reason it can't be allowed to happen again.
