This is a good book outlining all the difficulties in bringing any of the Khmer Rouge to justice. Having said that however anyone who knows Phnom Penh and Cambodia will be turned off by the factual errors in the Forward. e.g. Phnom Penh is at the juction of three rivers, not two. The Tone Sap, the Mekong and the Balzac. The city is on the Tonle Sap river and the author did not stroll along the Mekong - it was the Tonle Sap. The FCC is not "a rather sweet little restuarant", it is a large three story affair with a large restuarant area and large windows overlooking the Tonle Sap river although the junction with the Mekong can be seen in the distance.The are no sugar palm trees anywhere near the airport. He did not take an evening stroll along the Mekong - it must have been along the Tonle Sap.

There are no city lights twinkling on the other side of the river. Only now is development of that area beginning. The long row of Vietnamese floating homes there were cut loose and floated downstream. There are not now and never were "innumerable little brothels" across the river.
