Lost Horizon by James Hilton
3.0
An interesting read-4 people hijacked and end up in Shangri-La where they are pretty much stuck due to extreme conditions. I felt the ending was rushed and would be interested to read the stories of the other 3 people as this book focused on Conway's point of view.
"While attempting to escape a civil war, four people are kidnapped and transported to the Tibetan mountains. After their plane crashes, they are found by a mysterious Chinese man. He leads them to a monastery hidden in "the valley of the blue moon" -- a land of mystery and matchless beauty where life is lived in tranquil wonder, beyond the grasp of a doomed world. It is here, in Shangri-La, where destinies will be discovered and the meaning of paradise will be unveiled."
