520 1 $a"In search of love or absolution or both, Charles Boatman travels, suddenly and without explanation, to Vietnam, where as a young, reluctant soldier he fought in the war twenty-eight years earlier. But will his return manage to purge his memories?" "When Charles disappears, two of his children, Ada and Jon, travel to Danang to find him. Their quest takes them into the heart of a world that is at once incomprehensible, impassive, and beautiful. Chasing her father's shadow for weeks, following slim leads, Ada feels increasingly hopeless. Yet while Jon slips into the urban nightlife to avoid what he's afraid they'll find, Ada soon grows closer in spirit than ever before to her father and his suffering - and strong enough to forgive him and bear the truth of a long-kept secret." "David Bergen's superbly drawn characters include Lieutenant Dar, a police officer who tries to seduce Ada by withholding information; Elaine Gouds, the reluctant wife of a self-styled American missionary; the boy Yen, who follows Ada and claims to be her guide; and Hoang Vu, the artist and philosopher who will teach Ada about the complexity of love and betrayal." "Moving between father and daughter, present and past, The Time In Between is a novel about one family, two cultures, and a profound journey in search of elusive answers."--BOOK JACKET.
