Written with compassion and a true understanding of the current
politics and business world of the Middle East, "The Desert
Contract" paints a dead-on portrait of Saudi Arabia's near future
and, at the same time, deftly examines what happens when passion,
commitment, and loyalties collide.
Late at night on the eleventh-floor balcony of a deserted building
on the Persian Gulf, American businessman Steve Kemp finds himself
falling back in love with Helen--the Irishwoman he'd left more than
a decade before--as bombs explode below.
Kemp returned to the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia as a last
attempt to find success. Fired from his job in L.A. and divorced
from his wife, he hoped to salvage his finances in a peaceful part
of the Middle East. But he arrived to find a country on the verge
of a political meltdown, where an explosive mix of resentment,
revolt, and jihadists threatened the regime. And he found his old
flame Helen, who was now married to a diplomat at the end of his
career.
The overextended military props up the crumbling monarchy, buying a
little time--time Kemp and Helen use to rekindle their affair. As
the country plunges into violent political crisis, Kemp focuses on
financing his escape with Helen. All he needs is one last big
sale--their contract out.
The country enters its final descent when Kemp's sale at last
appears. The deal will be complete once Kemp visits a correspondent
bank. It is standard procedure. But suddenly the picture darkens.
The bank is on the wrong side of an obscure island. Helen, and even
her husband, may have had a hand in the sale. And the terms may be
more ambiguous--and more dangerous--than Kemp had thought.
