Garlands of Moonlight

3.6/5 ( ratings)

Silent and merciless, a creature of darkness has come
to prey on an island village.

Babies vanish, mothers are
murdered, and the threat of evil grows with each night. The village
becomes a battleground as the onrush of the twentieth century clashes
with tradition--and the restless spirits of the island's mythical
past...

Set in late colonial Indonesia in 1910, Garlands
of Moonlight relates the story of a village ravaged by the dual
threats of modernity and an ancient, supernatural evil. The traveling
herbalist Marsiti is at the center of the conflict, helped by Hidayat, the village's rational, no-nonsense
schoolteacher.

The book's high production values, including the
use of special formulations of black and silver inks and the use of
high-definition stochastic printing technology, mimic the quaint
feel of a collection of turn-of-the-century daguerreotype photographs.
