Más información sobre el libro

Two people separated by age, distance and culture. Both suffering emotionally. Martin at home in Ireland, grieving for his wife who had died some seven years previously, and Joy, a bar girl in Thailand with all that entails for a young girl far away from her family. Neither of them are contemplating any sort of emotional attachment. Martin, in following his interest in figurines of deities, travels to Thailand for an auction and is robbed by a street thief. In chasing her he finds himself in Joy's bar and they discover an affinity with each other. There are obstacles. Martin still loves his wife and cannot let her memory go. Joy has had enough of men. But they are drawn to each other and friendship develops into affection and then an intense love. There is opposition from Martin's family and the bureaucracy that threatens to overwhelm them as Martin desperately tries to get her to Ireland. At times his desperation turns to near despair and he is willing to chance all, even his life, for the love of this woman who has made him want to live again.
