Frances Innes and her brother Jason inherit $50 million after their parents die in a plane crash. Both are ingenues when it comes to money and investments, so they leave the family fortune in the capable hands of an old stockbroker friend of their fathers. They decide to travel. In London, they meet up with Enrico a friendly and attractive man who claims to be the financial advisor of sheiks, third world dictators, and pop stars. Dazzled by his worldly charm and impressed by his financial expertise, they agree to join him on a leisurely trip to Tangier. There, a fateful triangle of love, jealousy, and greed is forged. Distracted by the exotic backdrops of Morocco and the seductive glamour of the Cote dAzur, Frances and Jason become the unwitting targets of a sinister conspiracy to rob them of their inheritance.

"This book, from the previously unpublished manuscript in the National Library of Ireland, is a valuable and deeply detailed edition of the diary kept by Casement during his journey into the South American rainforests. He had been sent by the British government to report on atrocities against tribal people while being forced to collect rubber in the Putumayo region in the north-west Amazon. Genocide among the Amazon Indians has continued, but external investigations of this kind have been rare. The way in which Roger Casement carried out his work is still relevant to all kinds of humanitarian and whistle-blowing activities. It is also a key text charting Casement's transition from observer to anti-imperial revolutionary and Irish independence leader, culminating in his execution by the British government in August 1916 after the Easter Rising."
