Synopsis
A Japanese business owner is visiting an undisclosed South American country for a birthday celebration thrown in his honor. He has been invited by the country's government and business interests who are hoping that the Japanese man will invest and bring his company to their country. The Japanese man does not intend to invest in the country, but he is enticed to attend the birthday party by an Opera singer that will be performing that night. During the lavish dinner and spectacular performance a small group of amateur terrorists capture the dinner guests and wait staff. They are looking for the President of the South American country, but he is not in attendance. On a rash decision the terrorists decided to take the important business men and the opera singer hostage until the government meets their demands. For the preceding months the hostages and terrorists live together in the vice presidential mansion and grow to understand more about each other that was ever expected.
Pontification
Loved this book. Wonderful. Written in a way that draws the reader in, with a sufficient dose of romance, action, suspense and relationship building. Highly recommended for persons with sympathetic hearts who see beauty in creating friendships and relationships across conventional borders.
