A man builds a successful life post-war, but always feels there is something missing in his life, a particular woman. His friends try to help him out in this regard but nothing works as he feels the years slipping away and hours of his life being stolen in time.
A parallel love story takes place at the same time with several players in the romantic drama travelling to such disparate places as Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia and Pago Pago in the Pacific. (Source: Publisher's blurb)
