Comes a gripping new novel that brilliantly portrays the Central Asian republics in a period of despotism and anarchy, weaving together lives linked and irrevocably altered by one extraordinary man.
High in the mountains of war-torn Tajikistan, rebels abduct inspirational UN peace negotiator, Rahul Khan. The lives of his closest friends begin to unravel.
Tessa, now married with two children, has never stopped loving Rahul. Lance, a dedicated aid worker, has used Rahuls friendship to avoid facing up to the gaps in his own life. Hugo, his UN supervisor, feels responsible for the abduction and is driven to uncover the truth. Tajik translator Nargis owes Rahul a personal debt but has secrets she cannot share. As hopes for Rahuls survival fade, each must find a way to begin again.
Set in Central Asia following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Uncertain Light vividly evokes a sense of place and an almost tangible atmosphere. With an authenticity and attention to detail that perfectly capture the nuanced compromises of relationships, Marion Molteno deftly weaves the strands of these interlocking worlds into a story of intimacy, hard choices, heartache and courage.
