"Bali Burning is set against a chaotic backdrop of political shifts in the United States, a rising tide of Islamic fundamentalism, and China's drive to increase influence in Indonesia. The two central characters in this novel, James Langton and Hugh Rees, are boyhood friends who become lifelong enemies, operatives on opposite sides in the Cold War. Reaching the end of their careers, they are drawn into a final bloody confrontation on the island of Bali. This battle mirrors the fight between order and disorder - dharma and adharma - that is a theme of the island's folklore and myth."--BOOK JACKET.
