Tony Hillerman's turf is usually the Navajo reservation patrolled by the Tribal Police. But in Finding Moon, he leaves his familiar Southwest setting for the chaos of Southeast Asia in 1974, as Saigon was falling. "Moon," a Colorado newspaperman, is searching for his recently killed brother's infant daughter stranded somewhere in Cambodia. After some strange maneuvering in Manila, he lands right in the middle of the Pol Pot's killing fields with a devout Chinese Buddhist searching for his ancestral urn, an attractive, enigmaticÊDutch woman searching for her martyr-prone missionary brother, and an ARVN leftover searching for a way out. What they find, especially what "Moon" finds in all this turmoil, will keep you listening and hoping to hear more of "Moon."
