In the Foreboding Shadows of Holiness

In this piercing novel, Scott Shaw takes the reader into the lost realms of 1980s Burma where he details, in his uniquely personal and revealing manner, the paths of love, lust, wanderlust, and the violence brought on by ruthless mercenaries. As is universally the case with his international novels, Shaw details the sights, sounds, and experiences of the geographic region through the eyes of someone who truly knows the terrain – providing deep insight in the world that surrounds his central characters.
