"Alexis and Austin met on a Saturday night. Not in a bar, but instead in the emergency room where Alexis sutured a bullet wound in Austin's arm. Six months later, on the brink of falling in love, they travel to Vietnam on a bicycling tour so that Austin can show her his passion for cycling and so that he can pay his respects to the place where his father and uncle fought in the war. But as Alexis sips white wine and waits at the hotel for Austin to return from his solo ride, two men emerge from the tall grass and Austin vanishes into thin air"--
