In Finding Santana Jill Jolliffe tells of her clandestine journey across the Indonesian archipelago pursued by the Suharto dictatorship's notorious secret police. Her goal is an interview with East Timorese guerilla commander Nino Konis Santana.
Part memoir, part adventure story, this book is written from the diaries Jill Jolliffe kept, interwoven with those of intrepid nineteenth-century traveller Anna Forbes, who also narrowly escaped death in the East Timor mountains.
