Synopsis
The highly anticipated second novel from the author of the internationally best-selling Twelve.Mike is interning in Hong Kong when his editor, a friend of his father's, gives him the assignment, and a mission: find Christopher Dorr, a brilliant journalist gone AWOL. So begins a propulsive journey that will take a young man grasping after his identity headlong through fast nights in Thailand, into the grip of family tragedy, and into the heart of September 11, 2001.
The New York Times - Janet Maslin
Mr. McDonell writes best about the precise dynamics of class, loneliness and spiritual decay.
