Making It to Semany

Ben Lawsky, a Vietnam veteran turned private detective, is in desperate need of a client. His bank account is dwindling, and he must find a way to pay for his hobby, riding his Harley. When Liza walks through his office door, he's willing to do almost anything to get the job, even if it involves traveling to Sri Lanka-although he doesn't know at first where the country is. Liza is worried about her close friend Sanger, whom she has known for twenty years. Three months ago, after living in the United States for thirty-five years, Sanger suddenly decided to return to his home country of Sri Lanka. Liza hasn't heard from him since his departure. Lawsky takes the case, and it sends him on journey to the island nation, where he uncovers the intricate details of the tiger movement, the government and its corrupt ways, and its use of politics that had entered a once-pure Buddhist Sangha.
