<p>The year is 1990. Vietnam and America have not yet made peace. Vietnam is freshly wounded from fighting border wars with China and is on the eve of shedding its command economy for a market economy. The first bombing of the World Trade Center is still three years away. America is not yet awake to the dangers of Islamic terrorism. China's rise is just beginning, and Vietnam and America recognize the importance of ending their differences. Mission in Paris 1990 is a fictional account of events that lead to political reconciliation. It's the story of how an American media tycoon, Robert Samberg, gets caught up in the events of political reconciliation and discovers the path to a personal reconciliation. Samberg believes that creating the largest broadcast empire in America will bring him the love and the respect he craves but fears he does not deserve. His ticket to winning in life is achieving success and wealth - proving his worth to a father who abused him.  But on the eve of his greatest triumph, he rediscovers My Hanh, a long-lost love from Vietnam, and learns they have a son. Robert's life is upended. My Hanh is the Assistant to the Communist Party Chairman, a woman who reveres the heroines of her nation's history and is driven by her political ambition.  She has lived a life dedicated to the state, her work more important than the men in her life, until Robert returns with love too powerful to resist. Suddenly her quest for power and independence takes second place to loving a man she had all but forgotten.</p>
