Lombok Flames

Less than a month after the celebrations of Millennium Night, the island of Lombok - sister to its famous neighbour, Bali - is torn apart by riots, part of the religious and ethnic tensions that are threatening the stability of the whole of Indonesia.



After a life spent wandering the world, Denise Laing has settled in the tourist resort of Senggigi and seems to have found a fragile inner peace. But the riots, and the arrival of her estranged daughter, set off a personal crisis that shakes this peace to its roots.



The final part of a trilogy set in Indonesia, Lombok Flames explores the struggle to find meaning in the modern globalised world and the role of religion in that struggle.
