The small Middle Eastern kingdom of Kutar is under attack from a group of rebels. The Kutar military is destroyed and the country's capital of Laradan will soon be under attack. As the nations of the world pull out their dignitaries, American diplomat David Richards and an eclectic assortment of other foreigners hide out in the run-down Moonlight Hotel. Together, this small community of outcasts tries to maneuver the radically modified landscape, while holding onto the faint glimmer of hope that the outside world might come and save them. A stunning novel about the consequences of American power on the rest of the world, 'Moonlight Hotel' is a timely adventure from one of our most unique voices.

New York, New York, U.S.A: Doubleday, 2006. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. David Richards is a mid-level diplomat assigned to the sleepy, backwater Middle Eastern kingdom of Kutar in 1983. He spends his days on minor development projects and his nights seducing ambassador's wives. But when news of a tribal skirmish reaches the capital, Richards soon finds himself embroiled in a civil war as Colonel Munn, a pint-sized, blustery Texan assigned to Kutar, organizes a preemptive offensive against the rebellious forces. After Munn is immediately routed and the rebellion seizes control of the capitol, Richards holes up in the ramshackle Moonlight Hotel with fellow expatriates, determined to ride out the conflict despite the growing chaos and destruction that are heading towards them. This is a stunning and thrilling no of war and survival from an acclaimed war correspondent.
