Book summaryAs a cabal prepares a full scale onslaught to unseat the current ruler of Spanish Guiana, a group of American businessman is just as determined to keep him in place. Why? There's oil to be found beneath the Guianan soil, and the reigning president is amenable to the pillage of his country's natural resources by Americans. A full-scale battle breaks out, as the desire for freedom struggles to win out against the equally compelling motivation of greed. Media reviews"Brilliantly realized...a stately outstanding mix of tragedy and black farce that builds slowly-but inexorably--to its piercing conclusion." |
