Publisher's Synopsis
Ramanya, a former rebel soldier from Burma (Myanmar), now lives as a Buddhist monk in Thailand. One morning, a strange man appears at Ramanya's temple and says that his family, which Ramanya had long thought dead, is actually alive and in hiding back in Burma.
Is it true? Or just a trick by the ruling junta to lure him back and execute him for war crimes?
A hostage crisis in downtown Bangkok rockets up tension between the two countries. Armies mobilize and head to the border. Ramanya and two of his closest confidants -- an American teacher and a British priest-- have 48 hours to get to Three Pagodas Pass and sneak him past the military before the border is completely sealed.
Three men running from secrets and tragedies in their past. Four tense days in and around Bangkok.
