Book excerpt: Chopper pilot and Vietnam war hero Joe Murphy finds himself in the middle of the brutal Guatemalan revolution when he witnesses an attack on a Mayan village by the Guatemalan Army and its CIA "advisors". Badly injured, he escapes on a nightmare trek through the jungle, hunted by the Army, the CIA, and death squads. Healed by guerrilla doctor Dona Villalobos, he falls in love with her and tries to save her from the revolution's widening horror of insanity, tragedy, and death. She convinces him to return to San Francisco to reveal this hidden war to the US media, but the CIA hunts him down there, killing everyone he turns to. He returns to Guatemala to findDona and to face the war in the jungle and the death squads. Based on the author's own experiences as the only foreign war correspondent left alive in Guatemala when over 150 journalists had been killed by death squads, Night of the Dead is "a riveting thriller of murder, politics, and lies" -- London Broadcasting
