Thunder Demons

In Thunder Demons, Jay, an American biomaterials research scientist, finds himself back in Malaysia after decades due to work and a personal crisis. He meets Agni, the daughter of a deceased friend, and the tension escalates as secrets about Agni’s origins are revealed. In a country where personal action has implications for the larger socio-political issues simmering below the surface, this novel explores the forces which fuel different kinds of terror. Malaysia forms the lush backdrop for a narrative which moves between the past and the present as fable and folklore combine to create a portrait of a land both mystical and modern.
