In this sequel to "The Radiant Way" and "A Natural Curiosity", the author extends her viewpoint to embrace the suffering of Cambodia and the moral nightmare of uncounted deaths. One day Liz receives a parcel from Cambodia which contains, together with a finger bone, scraps of writing by her friend. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Inhaltsangabe

Two years ago - or was it more? - novelist Stephen Cox had vanished to the East. There had been postcards, then silence: now Liz has received this strange parcel of jottings, bills, pictures and bones. Enlisting the help of another of his friends, beautiful, rackety Hattie Osborne, Liz begins to decipher the trail of the man who might once have become her lover. 'Margaret Drabble's most ambitious novel to date ...Taking up themes and characters from its two immediate predecessors The Radiant Way and A Natural Curiosity the plot unravels in scenes from St John's Wood ... to a bridge over the river on the border between Thailand and Cambodia ... interesting, detailed, amusing and horrifying by turns' TLS
