Blood Red Moon

Blood Red Moon shows the face of love in war, how it shines through the complexities of this international political thriller cum espionage story. In the background loom the death-throes of disintegrating Yugoslavia. Pierce Coulson, American journalist, finds true love when he is only looking for adventure. War soon separates the lovers. When he returns to save and reclaim his love, for a fleeting moment everything seems to be alright, but fate, wearing the mask of war, interferes again. Later, this man with sharp eyes, a keen pen and uncompromising integrity finds himself reporting the siege of Sarajevo, the war in Bosnia, the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo, from all sides, showing what it meant for the people who lived there. When he sees that the picture of truth has become hopelessly distorted by political mavericks with conflicting interests, he withdraws to save his sanity, before the liberating bombs start to fall on Kosovo.
