Retired Vancouver Police officer Sam Watson has little use for religion. When his only son, Jeff, commits to missionary service in Thailand, Sam is understandably upset. An uneasy long distance relationship continues until the unthinkable happens, Jeff is murdered. The mission organization wants nothing to do with the investigation and the Thai Police seem unable or unwilling to solve the crime. Sam finds himself in Thailand seeking his son's killer but also grappling with loss, culture shock and, ultimately, the meaning of his son's short life. ..".weaves together details to make an exotic locale vivid, while keeping the story moving briskly...never preaches, and avoids cheap sentiment, making for a satisfying read."-Larry Matthews, writer & editor, Toronto, ON. ..". deeply convincing...gritty feel of truth... wrestles with...right and wrong, faith and doubt, justice and evil..."-Loren Wilkinson, Prof of Philosophy & Interdisciplinary Studies, Regent College, University of British Columbia.
