Colombo, 1990. Maali Almeida, war photographer, gambler and closet gay, has woken up dead in what seems like a celestial visa office. His dismembered body is sinking in the serene Beira lake and he has no idea who killed him. At a time where scores are settled by death squads, suicide bombers and hired goons, the list of suspects is depressingly long, as the ghouls and ghosts with grudges who cluster round can attest. But even in the afterlife, time is running out for Maali. He has seven moons to try and contact the man and woman he loves most and lead them to a hidden cache of photos that will rock Sri Lanka.

Well after that if you're not already itching to get your hands on this book, I can only assume you can't read and navigate Meetup/ the SWG website by pictures alone.

For anyone new to the book club, we go to the pub and have an informal chat about the book and any other interesting questions that it raises. If we get a lot of people, we might split into smaller groups of 3 or 4 and then mix it up halfway through.
