    Growing up in war-torn Vietnam was normal, even idyllic at times, for Snow, the youngest of seven children in her family. Although her heart belongs to an American GI, she honors her father by marrying a Vietnamese man. Her halcyon life unravels as the Vietnam War ravages her country and the threat of communism culminates with the fall of Saigon. Life in unified Vietnam under the new regime becomes unbearable. Betrayed by her husband and left with a dying child to raise, Snow must set aside her morals and push herself to the limit emotionally, physically, and mentally, to buy her way out of the country. Her decision to escape and find sanctuary in America takes her adrift in the South China Sea and the Gulf of Thailand with her daughter, nephew, and other boat refugees. For days, they are at the mercy of pirates, storms, and dire conditions. Ultimately, Snow settles into a refugee camp on the island of Galang in Indonesia, but life there is deplorable. The threat of repatriation and the will to keep her family alive keeps her motivated to hustle for a ticket to freedom. 
    “Wow, Snow in Vietnam is better than Miss Saigon! A story told from someone who lived through love, loss, and the pursuit of freedom during the Vietnam War. A triumphant story of the Vietnamese boat people!” — Loc Bui, Business Development Officer, Media Vines Corp 
    "The book is beautifully written, the story told with equal amounts of heart and skill and this reader could hardly tear away from the story for real-life each day." —Kim Hornsby, USA Today Bestselling Author and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author
