Here's an historical mystery and story of love set in French Indochina during future president John F. Kennedy's only trip to Vietnam. Congressman Kennedy's visit in 1951 with his brother Robert and sister Patricia is woven into the fabric of the story, as Bobby is met in Saigon by a foreign correspondent. Their friendship introduces unexpected danger to the Kennedy's since the newspaperman and his lovely Vietnamese interpreter have been drawn into a murder investigation. Secret Society thugs and assassins stalk the American writer, while a possible origin of the so-called Kennedy curse appears. The mystery eventually unfolds as Jack Kennedy's secret mission in Vietnam comes to light. The Watchman of Saigon is also available in a variation of the original tale without the Kennedys, set in 1954, the end of French rule in Indochina. The Girl from Perfume River is told from the point of view of the Vietnamese woman.
