Reseña del editor: Who is James O'Sullivan? Nobody knows. For over two decades he's kept his past hidden. With his parents and siblings dead, only he remembers that: ...years ago in Shanghai, when a boy of just seven years, his mother was struck down and killed short seconds after he had been snatched from her clutches and kidnapped, ...as a British soldier, he heard death call while lying gravely injured on the floor of a Burmese jungle, ...it took months to recover; eight months of gentle nursing by the jungle cave-dweller, a small man living high up within the escarpment, a man feared by the locals who believe him to be a great and powerful mystic. But, there is something else. An event so painful...a choice so awful that most days, he forgets it ever happened. His mind has suppressed the truth, held it captive for more than twenty years deep within the dungeon of his memory. There it has remained and there it still lurks...ready to escape. An enigma to his sons, particularly to Sam, his youngest, James O'Sullivan has also kept vital parts of himself from his devoted wife. His is a life ordered by standards and expectations, yet ruled by guilt and shame. For James, a chance to change is coming. But, will his marriage survive? Can his wife endure and forgive when confronted by his terrible betrayal? An old friend from his distant past will soon arrive. He will bring with him a way back to the truth, a parting opportunity for James O'Sullivan to reclaim his life, and finally share the last - and greatest - of all his shocking secrets.
