Flame Tree: A Novel Of Modern Burma
by Dahlberg, Keith
About This Book
Returning to Burma to teach for a month, Dr George Daniels and his wife, Vienna, had not expected to get involved in a war. But a renegade colonel disrupts the balance of power between the dictatorship and the insurgent hill armies, flooding the Thai border with refugees. George discovers information crucial to ending the conflict - and his wife is held hostage to prevent his using it - at the Flame Tree truce conference. This is a story about a man who has spent a lifetime avoiding confrontation, and who now finds himself in a mediator's role between a dictatorship and rebel armies fighting for survival.
