White Redling (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781413468496)

BOOK DESCRIPTION: Two Caucasian hybrid buddies find themselves caught in the maelstrom of student activism in an American university in Southeast Asia. Yet all they wanted was to fulfill their cherished childhood dreams: David wants to paint and drive around the world in a red Mustang, while Archie wants to rule his province one day. Yet little does David realize that when he gets sworn into the underground Communist Party, against the wishes of his intellectual girlfriend Juliet, it would turn his poverty-stricken world upside down. After the rebels ambush a general, something goes terribly awry and he decides to bolt the movement. He boards a ship and heads deep to Islamic Mindanao, seeking his long-lost pal Catinao, a half-Chinese Muslim, who helps him out, till the enigmatic plantation owner himself, Van Custer, for reasons of his own, gives him sanctuary. In his newfound Shangri-La, David also meets Angela, a beauteous American nurse, who leads him to a spiritual high. Meanwhile, Archie has firmed up a decision to hunt down his renegade buddy. He tracks David first to Iligan, then to Malinaw, and finally to Van Custer
