REKILL is the gripping story of a manhunt. The target is Van Dhoc. Tall, soft-spoken, a former captain of the North Vietnamese Army, he has a psychopaths obsession: to work his way, systematically and ruthlessly, down a list of participants in the brutal massacre at Da Loc, a village that had been wiped from the map one sunny afternoon in the war.

John Leeming, former head of a Special Forces Camp in Vietnam has a past of his own to conceal - a past which had eventually driven him back to the anonymity of civilian life. For him, the summons to Paris by SHAPE represents an unexpected opportunity to remake his history. Then he witnesses the grisly aftermath of Van Dhoc's latest strike and derives his own obsession, to hunt down and either kill or be killed by the man capable of such madness. It is a mission that will take him as far as Albania and to the ancient citadel of Scutari, there to discover the most important military secret of the decade.
