Description
When Mike Langford, a war photographer with a reputation for unusual risk-taking, disappears inside Cambodia, he becomes a mythic figure in the minds of his friends. The search for him, which is at the heart of this novel, explores the personal highways that led him to war, and to his ultimate fate.
Reviews
'A quite outstanding novel about the Indochina war, the best I have read since Graham Greene's The Quiet American.' - Richard West, Literary Review
