From the Edgar Award-winning author: "[A] highly readable novel of
political adventure . . . a cracking good story and the Africa
mentality is fascinating" (Kirkus Reviews). Clinton Shartelle
doesn't seem like a good choice to run a political campaign in
Albertia. For one thing, he's American, and Albertia is a small
coastal republic in Africa, about to be cut loose from the English
Crown. For another, Shartelle is Southern and fiercely proud of it,
and his ideas about racial politics veer unpredictably from
progressive to rigidly old-fashioned. But Shartelle is the best,
and the political future of Albertia is too important to be left to
anyone else. If history is any indication, this first fair election
will probably be the country's last. Rich natural resources make it
attractive to businessmen on both sides of the Atlantic, opening
Albertia up to political corruption. For his part, Shartelle is
hired to make sure that a British industrialist's favored candidate
wins the presidency. But the opposition is backed by the CIA, for
whom murder is just another political tool.
