Présentation de l'éditeur

When Father Paul Michel, a missionary on the desperately poor Caribbean island of Ganae, rescues a little black boy, Jeannot, from abject poverty, he has little idea of the dramatic and perilous events the future holds in store. Jeannot becomes a revolutionary Catholic priest and is subsequently elected president of a land previously accustomed only to despair and dictatorship. A brilliant messianic orator, Jeannot bravely urges his black brethren to rise against the forces determined to topple him. But is he a saint of a rabble-rouser? Even Father Paul can no longer be sure of his protege's true motives...
