No other land has captured man`s imagination quite like Tibet. Hidden away behind the highest mountains on earth, & ruled over by a mysterious God-king, it was for centuries a land forbidden to all outsiders. In this remarkable & ultimately tragic narrative, Peter Hopkirk recounts the forcible opening up of this medieval Buddhist kingdom by inquisitive Western travellers during the nineteenth & twentieth centuries, & the race to reach Lhasa, Tibet`s sacred capital. This epic, often harrowing tale, which ends with the Chinese invasion of 1950, draws on a colourful cast of gatecrashers from nine different countries. Among them were adventurous young officers on Great Game missions, explorers & mountaineers, mystics & missionaries. All took their lives in their hands, including three intrepid women. Some were never to return. ...

Its owner is Aramon Lunel, an alcoholic so haunted by his violent past that he`s become incapable of all meaningful action, letting his hunting dogs starve and his land go to ruin.

From the moment he arrives at the Mas Lunel, a frightening and unstoppable series of consequences is set in motion. Two worlds and two
