Item description from seller

Paperback. Edgar Award Finalist for Best First Novel by an American Author Captivating . . . has qualities any reader would wish for: adventure, romance, history and a vividly described exotic setting.The Washington Post In 1925 the international treasure-hunting scene is a mans world, and no one understands this better than Irene Blum, who is passed over for a coveted museum curatorship because she is a woman. Seeking to restore her reputation, she sets off from Seattle in search of a temple believed to house the lost history of Cambodias ancient Khmer civilization. But her quest to make the greatest archaeological discovery of the century soon becomes a quest for her familys secrets. Embracing the colorful and corrupt world of colonial Asia in the early 1900s, The Map of Lost Memories takes readers into a forgotten era where nothing is as it seems. As Irene travels through Shanghai's lawless back streets and Saigons opium-filled lanes, she joins forces with a Communist temple robber and an intriguing nightclub owner with a complicated past. What they bring to light deep within the humidity-soaked Cambodian jungle does more than change history. It ultimately solves the mysteries of their own lives. Look for special features inside.
