DRAGON HOUSE is Shor's third novel. This one is set in present day Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Iris has lost her father and wants to fulfill his dream of creating a school for Vietnamese street children. Joining her on the trip is Noah, recently back from Iraq, where he lost a leg. He is headed toward alcoholism and drug abuse and Iris hopes this trip will help him find himself again. They have been friends since childhood.
This sets the stage for a beautifully crafted story of love, pain, redemption and joy in a city finally recovering from the war (which we all know was not really a "war"). You will cry and laugh and rejoice throughout this book. It is truly beautifully written!
