A retired American veteran returns to Vietnam seeking to quiet the ghosts of a forgotten war. But the land has a long memory. When James Calloway begins investigating a massacre his unit committed in 1968, he finds himself haunted not just by the spirits of the dead, but by the living who are desperate to keep the truth buried. In an unlikely alliance with Minh, a survivor of the atrocity, James is pulled into a conspiracy that stretches across five decades. As he confronts the full, terrible truth of his own actions, he must also race to expose a cover-up that cost his fellow soldiers their lives. His journey of personal atonement evolves into a mission for public justice, where he learns that the only way to live with ghosts is to serve them. A stunning blend of psychological thriller and spiritual odyssey, Echo of the Bamboo explores the weight of memory, the cost of silence, and the unexpected grace found in bearing witness.
