Last Phoenix

Last Phoenix chronicles the transition of an American boy next door into a soulless predator in the veritable and emotional jungle of irregular warfare, betrayal, madness, and revenge. It is the story of Karl Isaacson, a heart-of-America boy who believed in the rightness of his country. In the end, like his great country, he was betrayed and humiliated -- and he got even. This is an all-too-true fictional account of one agent in the CIA's Phoenix Program against the civilians of South Viet Nam during the War in Viet Nam -- the irregular, hidden, dirty little war. He learned that Phoenix lived on after the war, and then, he became the Last Phoenix.
