Part mystery, part love story, this novel takes the reader on an unnerving ride from a tranquil seaside
bar into the depths of an erotic and violent underworld in the jungles of Central America. When an ex-pat named Hagen
becomes embroiled in a secret battle between a drug lord and a renegade CIA agent over money laundering and a strange new
psychedelic drug derived from an endangered lizard, his fate slowly becomes indistinguishable from the obscure past of an
international arms dealer and the amusing fictional constructs of his own mind. The divergent yet fiercely taut storylines
deliver an incredibly satisfying journey into a surreal world governed by greed and deception where the stakes are high and
the rules keep changing. Nothing is taken for granted in this wild, mind-altering escapade that seems destined to end
in tragedy.
