Though Saint Euribius seems to be a quiet little island, the evolving drama and intrigue tell a different story. When a white political candidate runs for member of parliament in a 99 percent black country against a gay black man, tension and conflict are inevitable. And when a memoir written by the ancestor of one of the candidates surfaces and reveals a hidden truth, the results could be catastrophic.
One candidate is the lone voice speaking out against the island's flourishing drug trade. Throw in a rumored terrorist plot and an ex-army sniper turned surveillance expert, and there's suddenly more than meets the eye in this sleepy island.
Everyone has a skeleton to hide, something in the past that is secret or hidden or too personal to share. What happens when those secrets go back to an 1816 slave rebellion? And what if some of those secrets are revealed through a current enemy with an agenda?
In this dynamic page-turner where the truth is always just out of reach, nothing is off-limits, from familial background to race to sexual orientation. Everything about Saint Euribius's island politics is personal-and deadly serious.
