My lovely boyfriend bought me this book for my 23rd Birthday!
I have every Amy Tan book I've read, and I'm sure this will be no exception!
Bibi Chen is dead.
And she wants to tell you a story.
Businesswoman, patron of the arts and socialite Bibi Chen has been killed in mysterious circumstances. Her death may or may not be linked to the disappearance of eleven American tourists in southern Burma. They are 'Following Buddha's Footprints' along the Burma Road, on an expedition dreampt up by Bibi. But when her body is found just days before the departure date, they go without her. Robbed by their guide, it isn't long before the travellers stumble into difficulty with wary tribes and the military junta.
Seduced by notions of Shangri-La, and oblivious to the cautionary cries from the watchful presence of Bibi, they continue on their ill-fated journey, becoming ever more lost in the heart of the Burma jungle - where a desperate tribe await their saviour...
