Percy Vere was told to keep his head down and his mouth shut to progress through quiet corridors into the new world of wealth and recognition. His journey takes him from the brutality of colonialism to the killing fields of Cambodia and back into the heart of a world where fortunes are made and lost with a phone call. He learns that loyalty is currency, and the line between legitimate business and legalized theft is obscured by all levels of authority. The bigger the institution, the dirtier the secrets-and the more dangerous to notice.
