Publisher's Synopsis
Why are strangers travelling to St Gilberts and aiming for Rodney Leon? What do they think he knows? St Gilberts in the Indian Ocean, dubbed; 'The most beautiful tropical island on the planet' is home to Rodney Leon who, having lived there for all of his 25 going on 26 years, still feels like an outsider. His heritage, inheritance, physical appearance, and occupation, all mark him out as 'different'. A chance find and a casual internet enquiry bring a series of ruthless emissaries to St Gilberts who threaten both Rodney and his small circle of friends. What are they looking for and why do they think Rodney knows where it is? As Rodney and his friends struggle to work out what is happening while dealing with the escalating threats to their safety, they also find themselves confronting the big questions in life; questions to do with wealth, friendship, loyalty, love, and belonging. How they respond to those questions will irrevocably affect, not only their own lives, but that of the whole island as well.
