The Andes and Amazon of the turbulent 1970s are a world of military dictators, revolutionary dreams, cocaine money, and dangerous alliances.
At the center of it all is Amador—wealthy, charismatic, U.S.-educated, and determined to bring down Peru’s repressive military dictatorship. His revolutionary movement, the CDP, is growing rapidly, fueled by idealism, money from the cocaine trade, and a willingness to fight corruption with whatever tools are necessary.
Then Amador meets Jimena.
Beautiful, brilliant, and fiercely independent, Jimena joins the CDP and quickly becomes far more than Amador’s lover. She is his intellectual equal, his trusted partner, and the woman who shares his dream of transforming their country. Their passionate relationship becomes inseparable from the revolution itself—and puts them both in greater danger.
Meanwhile, Washington is watching.
Still haunted by the failures of Cuba and Vietnam, the CIA wants a foothold in the revolution before it reaches power. They recruit Tom, Amador's old American college friend—a divorced, guitar-playing, pot-smoking former math teacher who hardly looks like a spy—to find Amador and open a secret channel to the CDP.
As revolution, espionage, cocaine money, betrayal, and romance collide, loyalties become impossible to define.
In this dangerous game, corruption battles corruption, revolution has a human face, and love has no guard rails.
“... a suspenseful and exciting page-turner. The subtext poses many of the age-old philosophic questions concerning moral choices, justice, the use of violence to effect change, and, yes, good versus evil. … Any reader seeking a story of thought-provoking action, romance, and Latin American political maneuvering is sure to be amply rewarded.”
—MARK SCHEEL, author of And Eve Said Yes and The Potter’s Wheel

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
