Description

The awe-inspiring grandeur of the Tibetan landscape as well as the tragic predicament of its people is vividly captured in this gripping tale by one of India's finest writers.

An aged lama escapes from Tibet with knowledge of a secret treaty that would establish the independence of Tibet beyond doubt. An American girl - half Vietnamese by birth - an accomplished linguist as well as a martial arts expert, is sent to recover the treaty. She is assisted by a lama and an Indian Army officer.

What follows is an exciting chase across the Chang Tang - Tibet's Empty Quarter - ending in a thrilling show-down in a ruined castle on the banks of a lake and a final escape on a raft through the stupendous Tsangpo Gorges. The awe-inspiring grandeur of the Tibetan landscape as well as the tragic predicament of its people is vividly captured in this gripping tale by one of India's finest writers.
