HTML:This "novel of extraordinary humanity" (Madeleine Thien, author of <i>Do Not Say We Have Nothing</i>) from <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Vaddey Ratner reveals "the endless ways that families can be forged and broken hearts held" (<i>Chicago Tribune</i>) as a young woman begins an odyssey to discover the truth about her missing father.<br /> Leaving the safety of America, Teera returns to Cambodia for the first time since her harrowing escape as a child refugee. She carries a letter from a man who mysteriously signs himself as "the Old Musician" and claims to have known her father in the Khmer Rouge prison where he disappeared twenty-five years ago.<br /> <br /> In Phnom Penh, Teera finds a society still in turmoil, where perpetrators and survivors of unfathomable violence live side by side, striving to mend their still beloved country. She meets a young doctor who begins to open her heart, confronts her long-buried memories, and prepares to learn her father's fate.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, the Old Musician, who earns his modest keep playing ceremonial music at a temple, awaits Teera's visit. He will have to confess the bonds he shared with her parents, the passion with which they all embraced the Khmer Rouge's illusory promise of a democratic society, and the truth about her father's end.<br /> <br /> A love story for things lost and restored, a lyrical hymn to the power of forgiveness, <i>Music of the Ghosts</i> is a "sensitive portrait of the inheritance of survival" (<i>USA TODAY</i>) and a journey through the embattled geography of the heart where love can be reborn.
