Anil's Ghost transports us to Sri Lanka, a country steeped in centuries of tradi
tion, now forced into the late twentieth century by the ravages of the civil war
. Into this maelstrom steps Anil Tissera, a young woman born in Sri Lanka sent b
y an international human rights group as a forensic anthropologist to investigat
e the campaigns of organised slaughter engulfing the island. What follows is a s
tory about love, about family, about identity, about the unknown enemy, about th
e quest to unlock the hidden past - a story driven by a riveting mystery.
