Les Français s'aperçoivent qu'ils ont un Empire colonial en découvrant les pavillons exotiques et les villages indigènes groupés au pied d'un des temples d'Angkor reconstitué. C'est dans cette ambiance de kermesse que survient une série de morts inexpliquées. Les victimes ne présentent aucune blessure apparente et, hormis le fait d'avoir été présentes à l'Exposition, rien ne les relie entre elles.

Devastation and devotion are two sides to the same coin, and Brian Miller flips the coin to my heart without even trying.

Despite the age difference between us, I'm not a little girl, and I know the truth. Brian will never forgive himself for not being there when I needed him most. But he's the only man who can rescue me now.
