About "Escape from Saigon" Book Signing by Author Dick Pirozzolo...Nantucket-Boston author Dick Pirozzolo will talk about his new novel, "Escape from Saigon" and sign books available for sale at Mitchell's.

Spies, intrigue, danger and romance propel the story as "Escape from Saigon" chronicles the events of April of 1975 — the final thirty desperate days of the Vietnam War. It is the story of journalists, diplomats, Vietnamese refugees, and double agents who are all trapped in Saigon as the North Vietnamese Army tightens its stranglehold on their beloved city known as the Pearl of the Orient.

Two main characters: Lisette Vo, NBS-TV's first Vietnamese-American war correspondent and the cynical Sam Esposito, reporting for The Washington Legend offer plenty of twists turns and surprises as events unfold and their relationship develops. Though fiction, "Escape from Saigon" provides historical context through flashbacks and barroom ramblings about the Vietnam era. Great reading for those who experienced the war, its protests and their children and grandchildren who want to understand this defining event in our history and America's current foreign entanglements.

"Escape from Saigon" was published by Skyhorse Publishing, New York on January 3, 2017.
