Acid Test: A 'McCarthy Family' Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595329823)

Mick McCarthy has come a long way in two years. He's left behind the jungles of Vietnam and his position as Sergeant to return to Boston. He wants to put everything behind him--the war, the army, and most of all the dark, mysterious " special opps." mission. The only problem is that he can't forget; someone won't let him.

Mick may have settled into Cambridge's Harvard Square, but the nightmare of Vietnam lingers within him. He feels his life unraveling as he stumbles down the path that leads to folk music clubs in Cambridge and secret government labs at M.I.T. His girlfriend begins to doubt him, his father winds up in the hospital and Mick continues to find himself in situations he can't explain.

Mick begins to realize that things aren't always what they seem, there may be more to the past than he can recall and he's in a race against time to figure out what really happened in Vietnam. As much as he'd like to forget the past, Mick must remember. His life depends on it.
