A singular old man is torn-faced and broken. In earlier photographs he's eight feet tall and makes a very poor doormat, affable with the hordes. Now, he's hit his anecdotage, busy fending off obituarists. His only recourse to dignity is language.

Overlapping tales of the lives of the residents and visitors of one particular building.

Deep within the steaming tropical jungles of Vietnam is a Viet Cong terrorist training camp, run by an ex-Green Beret, William Marshall. A roving photographer stumbles upon the hidden camp and starts to take pictures. He is caught and summarily executed but the photos make it back to Washington. The CIA decide to send in an elite team of jungle warfare commandos, the Phantom Raiders, to establish whether Marshall is a POW or has gone bad. But another element has been added to this dangerous game. One of the Phantom Raiders is Marshall's son. Now he must come face to face with the enigma that was his father. The Phantom Raiders is a non-stop film of explosive action, with enough mayhem to leave you breathless.
