Shadows Over Rangoon is a 1941 Australian novel by F. J. Thwaites. [1]
The novel was serialised on Australian radio starting late 1941 and going into 1942. [2]
"It tells of a strange meeting during an air-raid, and of the few chance words responsible for sending Doctor John Courtney from all he once cherished to the oblivion of sun-drenched Rangoon. We read of a terrible misunderstanding that makes of a once proud woman an out- cast, and of the richly merited fate that overtakes Cedrick Gleeson, blackmailer and cheat; we meet eccentric but glamorous Delysia Rayner, rich and powerful, yet standing in the shadow of death; we see a great romance blossom amid the tropical loveliness of a Burmese valley."
