Before long, family ties will be stretched to the limit, friendships will suffer and the nation they help will sink ever deeper into the mire.The hope-filled protagonistsAfrican-American Bill Campbell and wife Jess have all they could ever wish for: abundant wealth, brilliant and beautiful children – a daughter, Perdita, and adopted son, Paul. So why are their lives not fulfilled? They find inspiration in the newly-independent Free Republic of Upper Congo. A poor, devastated nation filling with refugees from the region’s multitude of conflicts, it needs the Campbells and they need it. Jess’ deeply-held Christian evangelical beliefs motivate her to help the new nation. And Bill seizes the chance to do some real good in the world. Both are inspired to change the destiny of a nation from which their adopted son hails. But events conspire to interfere with the good intentions. Soon, Bill, Jess and their children are thrown into a dark world of warlords, corruption, gun-running, murder, and mayhem. Who are the good guys? And who are the bad? This fast-paced political thriller will keep you enthralled to the end.
