Sixteen-year-old Khmer dancer Devi and her little brother, Rithy, flee in terror after Ban Rath, formerly with the Khmer Rouge and the Killing Fields and now a trafficker in peasant girls, blows up their family hut, killing their father and grandmother. But where can they go, when nowhere seems safe from Ban Rath's reach? Tom Whitby, M.D., exhales in frustration on his flight to Bangkok. What induced him, the busiest oncologist in Denver, to fly off on this colossal waste of time-to provide medical help to the people of Phnom Penh in Cambodia? The answer, of course, is his wife, Jane Mackenzie Whitby, who spent her girlhood in Southeast Asia, and her father Dr. Mackenzie, the renowned missionary and world authority on iodine deficiency disorders. But what does Tom have to gain, playing holy-roller in some hellhole?
