Synopsis
The sun is setting over Manilla. In an abandoned hotel on the wrong side of town, Sean prepares for the arrival of Don Pepe, the gangster boss who runs the shipping lanes of the South China Seas. As he kills time, Sean discovers that his bed-sheets are stained with blood, the phone-lines to his room are dead, and that somebody covered the spyhole in his door . . . Elsewhere in the city, Rosa, a doctor, waits for her husband to come home, and thirteen year old Vincente begs on Roxas Boulevard. Tonight, these disparate lives will collide in a shattering finale. Alex Garland has woven three stories together to produce a breathtaking second novel.Latest Additions
