Rattlesnake

0/5 ( ratings)

In this stunning spy novel from Arturo Arias, Tom Wright, a CIA agent, is sent to Guatemala to rescue an Australian banker who has been abducted by a guerrilla organization known as EGP. There he reconnects with Sandra Herrera, a former lover who has since married into one of Guatemala's most powerful families. His involvement with her exposes him to internal turmoil and a host of dangers, as he realizes she may know more than she lets on. Arias captures complex political and personal relationships in a story replete with surprising plots and counterplots, and with people whose identities and affiliations we can never completely trust. Rattlesnake makes you explode with laughter with a bull's-eye kind of cultural humor not often seen in the U.S., and, at other times, will leave you gasping in horror.
