On a winter night in 2014 I stood by the side of a highway outside Damascus as a Syrian army officer shone a torch over the contents of my suitcase he had ordered me to empty onto the grey dirt. The young officer on checkpoint duty was a member of the elite Fourth Armoured Division commanded by President Bashar al-Assad’s younger brother, Maher.

The onset of the dry season late in the year delivers perfect beach weather to the southern Vietnamese mainland. But on Con Son, a different weather pattern brings tinplate skies and strong winds that force the local fishing fleet into harbour.
