Malaya 1951, a jungle resettlement camp: young colonial adventurer Christopher Milnar falls passionately in love with a Chinese nurse Evangeline - a fierce flame that ends in tragedy when their camp is attacked by Communist guerrillas and Christopher is left for dead.
London: half a century later, the ghosts return to haunt Christopher, triggering vivid memories of colonial misconduct and lost love. Forced to confront his actions, Christopher agonises over the fate of his beloved Evangeline and the whereabouts of their daughter.
Moving from present day London to the heart of the Malayan jungle in colonial times, THE ORIENTALIST AND THE GHOST is a stunning portrayal of human frailty and the ghosts that haunt a family from one generation to the next.
