Improbable Journeys of Billy Battles

As Book 2 of the Finding Billy Battles trilogy opens Billy is far from his Kansas roots—and his improbable journeys are just beginning. It is 1894, and he is aboard an ocean liner sailing to the Mysterious East. Along the way Billy meets a mysterious, dazzling, and possibly dangerous German Baroness and the two form an unlikely bond that leads them from one perilous escapade to another—including Billy’s inadvertent participation in an uprising against the French in Indochina, thus possibly making him the first American to become entangled in a country that will eventually be known as Vietnam
