Sommario/riassunto

A plane falls out of the sky. A large sum of money falls into someone's pocket. A young woman falls in and out of place and home. Hungry Ghosts interlaces the disappearance of flight MH370 with political corruption scandals in Malaysia and the search for identity in the ambiguous space of the new migrant.
