Summary
Katy's world is shattered. Her husband, Simon, has been murdered in a remote Cambodian border village. What was he doing there? Unable to sleep in peaceful Melbourne, Katy seeks solace in Simon's study: A remembered smell, a half-read book, something. What she finds is an unfinished manuscript, called Chavy's Story, hinting at Simon's secretive work. It tells the harrowing story of a young village girl trafficked for sex. Katy travels to Cambodia in search of answers. The riddles buried in the pages of Chavy's Story unmask a forgotten horror from Katy's childhood
