On the verge of a respectable marriage, he suddenly becomes involved with dope smugglers, volatile island politics, and Carly, a bored, strung-out American woman. Walking a fine line between present danger and old resentments, Winston rediscovers himself and finds a different sort of liberation, at the same time changing Carly's life forever. McCaig, author of Nop's Trials , creates believable characters and provides a fine sense of time and place. Even the presence of the Caribbean equivalent of a guardian angel seems appropriate. 3219657 1988 The Bamboo Cannon total:3|5:1|3:2| 3 11 5 0 0 0 false false Tue Jun 30 18:11:44 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 18:11:44 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Fri Feb 13 08:07:40 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 13 08:07:40 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Fri Nov 21 03:09:46 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 21 03:09:46 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Tue Sep 30 18:42:46 -0700 2008 Tue Sep 30 18:43:11 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Apr 10 19:49:42 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 16 04:41:43 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3186746
