Set on a troubled Caribbean island, where "everybody wants to fight his own little war," and "everyone is a guerrilla," the novel centers on an Englishman named Roche, once a hero of the South African resistance, who has come to the island to help. His English mistress, Jane, is blindly unaware of any possible consequences of her actions. Roche and Jane are drawn into a fatal connection with a young guerrilla leader named Jimmy Ahmed. Against the larger anguish of the world they inhabit, these three act out a drama of death, hideous sexual violence, and political and spiritual impotence that profoundly reflects the ravages history can make on human lives.
