​     Bruce  and his wife, Elaine Head, travel frequently to Vietnam and in their work and research have come to know well "the  structure of the trafficking and slavery network,"(1) and have met, interviewed, and come to know  victims of child sex trafficking in that part of the world.

    It is the experience and knowledge gained from his life's mission and his two tours of duty in Vietnam along with "data gleaned from academic literature and journalism, careful investigation on the Internet, interviews and field visits to both Vietnam and Cambodia." (2) that R. Bruce Logan used to craft his remarkable first novel, "Finding Lien."

...the story line of which is summarized here on the book's back cover:

    "Finding Lien" is such a good book. Not only is it deeply affecting, thought-provoking and informative, but it is fast-paced and a page-turner from the beginning as it opens with a sudden, shocking revelation that compels a retired U.S. Army officer to return to Vietnam to deal with the consequences of a brief, long-forgotten liaison with a young Vietnamese woman back when he was a young soldier during the war over forty years ago. The story then takes the reader down into the dark world of the Southeast Asian child sex-trafficking trade and is full of twists, turns, heart-gripping and heart-stopping moments and vibrant, realistic characters and settings. It is a realistic story that juxtaposes human evil, depravity and corruption with human goodness, courage and love.
