Description

The Samarang Hotel, set in the heart of Vientiane, Laos, is a world of intrigue and deception. Julian Lockhardt, its bombastic manager, is struggling to come to terms with his own shortcomings.

A recent arrival, Nancy Bacon, challenges Julian's views on society and culture, forcing him to confront the limitations of his Western perspective. As they embark on a journey into the hills of northern Laos, Julian begins to see the world in a new light, awakening to the power of symbolism and myth.

With newfound insight, Julian returns to the capital, determined to make amends and put things right. But will he have time to do so?
