Life in Washington DC is trying to 'return to normal' after the
trauma of September 11, 2001. George W. Bush is President and
Hillary Clinton, former First Lady and now Senator for New York,
already has her eye on higher things. One morning Su Soeung, who
first came to the US as a child refugee from Cambodia receives an
intriguing job offer. So begins an extraordinary train of events.
Su's efforts to discover the fate of her father who 'disappeared'
during Cambodia's Pol Pot nightmare, seem to be inextricably
intertwined with world politics at the highest level. Just how much
did the US know about Pol Pot and his band of 'brothers'? What
deals were done between Washington and Beijing? And, in the end, is
Su Soeung just a puppet of forces beyond her control? This is
Stanley Johnson's 11th - and finest - literary thriller yet -
tense, provocative, and deeply resonant of our current times, as
conspiracy theory and trauma once again put question marks over the
aims of the superpowers.
