Beyond the House of the False Lama chronicles the further adventures of the acclaimed author of Bones of the Master, George Crane - a wanderer, poet, romantic, and not-so-good student of Zen Buddhism who travels the globe in search of life's purpose. Leaving a comfortable, sedentary life in upstate New York, Crane sets sail from Key Largo in the middle of hurricane season, searches for love in the cafes of Paris, and treks past the House of the False Lama in the Gobi Desert to honor a promise to his spiritual mentor who narrowly escaped the Communist purges years earlier. Crane finds what every nomad knows: that every road is more a direction than a destination, and that in losing your way, you often find yourself.
