From the author of "Bad Traffic" (a "Los Angeles Times" Book Prize
nominee), a fast-paced adventure novel about two young backpackers
who find themselves in serious trouble in the jungle of Southeast
Asia.
On the Burmese border, two naive backpackers, Will and Jake, follow
a tour guide into the jungle, tantalized by the possibility of
dalliances with the tribal women who live there. At an idyllic
waterfall, they discover that nothing is as it seems and their
guide has his own agenda. It is not long before the two young men
slip into a nightmarish spiral of murder and moral decay, their
chance of survival determined by a game of hide-and-seek played out
with deadly crossbows. As the stakes get increasingly higher, the
bonds of friendship are tested and lives are put on the line.
"Border Run" is a gripping, amphetamine-paced novel about the
hidden perils that can lurk in paradise, and the fine line that we
draw for ourselves between what is "civilized" and what is not.
