Beskrivelse
To casual tourists, armchair travellers, and na ve investors, the undercurrents of many foreign countries are invisible. And so it was in the case of this African mining venture.
Corrupt leaders, crooked law officers, guerrillas, unscrupulous financiers, deception, and farce all lie as far below the surface as the mine's ore. And even there lie surprises.
An unscrupulous overseas financier runs into technical problems with the development of a secluded mine. To solve them he hires a brilliant engineer with a questionable past. One surprise after another lead to the engineer's eventual enlightenment and ability to take control of his destiny-after a fashion.
This expos on the realities of Africa and investment banking, is also an allegory on human limitations.
