Strangers On The Water John Doan

The arranged marriage of Dinh and Dung Doan couldn't have come at a worse time. Ho Chi Minh was taking over Northern Vietnam and threatening their Catholic way of life. The newlyweds gambled their lives on a dangerous escape to the south. Decades later, as communism conquered all of Vietnam, the Doans and their children found themselves threatened again. They knew they had to make a desperate escape. But where, and how, would they go?
Strangers On The Water chronicles two generations of the Doan family's struggle to live free. Readers will be taken on a thrilling adventure as the family contends with one catastrophe after another in their search to find a life worth living.
