| book description |

The riveting true story behind an unsanctioned rescue mission in the jungles of the Philippines, engineered by former Green Beret and unlikely American hero Gene Yu. Evelyn Chang and her husband were vacationing in the Philippines when they were ambushed by terrorists. Evelynâ€™s husband was killed. She was kidnapped and disappeared into the lawless netherworld of the Sulu Archipelago. There was no hope of a rescue. Former Green Beret Gene Yu was five years out of the military, unemployed, and struggling with his transition back to the real world when Evelynâ€™s family asked for help. His improbable mission: infiltrate one of the most dangerous corners of the world and get her back. Alone. Mindful of â€œevery young Asian kid in America struggling to fit into a dominant white culture,â€ Geneâ€™s harrowing, self-deprecating, and provocative memoir is really the story of two rescues. One, a personal liberation and the discovery of self-identity beyond both literal and figurative battlefields. The other is set amid the excruciating ordeals of a jungle war zone, where an Asian American man, once self-described as â€œnobody squared,â€ defied all stereotypes and expectations to become a womanâ€™s last hope of survival.
