Publisher's Synopsis
Call it the drama of the prodigal son in reverse. While Maulus Shane uses his wealth to indulge his fancies, he abandons his son, Johan, to uncertain fate in his youth. Years later, the aged and ailing father sets out in search of his now prosperous son as his possible source of redemption. The puzzle is, how does their meeting bridge the gulf between them? Will Johan's quest for an answer to the unresolved murder of his beloved mother years ago, for which his father possibly holds the clue, affect their reunion? Or, will father and son mend bridges through their mutual needs? In a snapshot of lives intermingled by twists and turns, the resolution unravels secrets that turn topsy-turvy the persona of the characters.
