Rennie Wilford, a young journalist running from her life, takes an assignment to a Caribbean island and tumbles into a world where no one is what they seem. When the burnt-out Yankee Paul (does he smuggle dope or hustle for the CIA?) offers her a no-hooks, no-strings affair, she is caught up in a lethal web of corruption.
Margaret Atwood has written a thoroughly gripping novel of suspense: the enigma unfolds, not as it would for a clockwork professional spy, but as it would for any innocent bystander swept up by events, bringing along the biases, the scruples and the fears of the past.
