QUINTYN AMES is a troubled government researcher who discovers that a female soldier left behind at the end of America's most notorious war may be still alive and trying to come home. But the American government doesn't want PATRICIA PAVLIK to home. Both action filled and gut wrenching, "The American Pearl," interweaves Patricia's 34-year survival ordeal with Ames' determination to get to the truth and to finally bring her home.
