The Quest is the second book in a two book series, The Miner Warrior of Luzon, Walter McKay Cushing. Book II completes the account of Walter M. Cushing's World War II exploits in Japanese occupied Philippines.

In April 1942, .60,000 Filipino-American troops surrendered to Japanese forces at the Battle of Bataan. Grim rumors of Japanese mistreatment of prisoners of war reach guerrilla leader Major Cushing at his headquarters in the mountains of northern Luzon. Cushing travels south to investigate. Ethnically half Mexican with tropical sun-darkened skin, he secretly passes as a Filipino. He learns the deadly conditions in the prison camps are worse than he could have imagined. But with a Japanese imposed radio blackout, he had no way of communicating his findings to allied command in Australia. Upon hearing a rumor that a shortwave radio had been stashed in a lighthouse, he undertakes a dangerous mission to recover it. His confidence from his previous successes is put to the test.
