2016br. La ricostruzione fedele, di una parte importante; di un momento della breve vita di un uomo politico, dei suoi ideali, di giustizia e di amore per il suo popolo, in lotta contro un dittatore sanguinario e crudele: un uomo che era stato sul libro paga della C.I.A. e messo dal governo degli Stati Uniti, come capo delle forze armate, e che ad un certo punto si ribella e diviene il dittatore più feroce sulla faccia della terra. In questo contesto nasce il Thriller ad alto tasso di suspense, azione e avventura che ripercorre la vita tormentata di quattro personaggi: due uomini e due donne, che ruotano intorno a questa vicenda, in un susseguirsi di colpi di scena incredibili, combattuti tra problemi di lavoro, vita privata, sentimentale e avventura; coinvolti, loro malgrado, nella fine di una dittatura che è costata migliaia di morti e la rinascita di un paese: Panama, per troppo tempo preda di un dittatore sanguinario che si chiamava Manuel Noriega. Una descrizione saggia e intuitiva, brillante e spregiudicata. È un romanzo, ma è costruito su una realtà storica che migliaia di persone hanno vissuto e che per i loro ideali hanno perso la vita.
