THE DOORWAY TO NIGHT
When colonial France reached out to enslave Indochina in a possessive embrace, she calmed the native population with the addictive, subjugating kiss of opium. Now the ruthless warlords of the region, desperate to retain control, search for a trio of weapons – the 'PreyDauw' – that have become a Theravadan Buddhist symbol so awesome, so imbued with mythic power, that whole populations bow to the will of whoever possesses them.
The last piece of the 'Prey Dauw' – a dagger – is believed to be held by an American, Terry Haye. His murder in the South of France is the first in a series of bloody assassinations that lures many new players into an already deadly game. As the 'Prey Dauw' exudes a drug-like potency, alluring, fascinating and seductive, each contender for power must acknowledge his sins and their implications – for no sin can go forever unpunished, forever unredeemed ...
