When archaeologists discover an ancient book written on gold leaves at Angkor Wat, everyone wants a piece of the action. But the police, the Army and the UN are all outflanked when the precious artifact is stolen, and its guardian, Professor Luc Andrade, kidnapped along with it. Luc's love and respect for Cambodia have won him many friends, including ex-Khmer Rouge cadre Map and the young motoboy William. Determined to rescue the man they consider their mentor and recover the Golden Book, they form an unlikely bond. But William has no idea just how closely Map's violent past affects him. [cover]
