Book description
A sullen restlessness stirs in Pharamaul, an African island where a policeman’s uniform was the signal for silence. A young chief nurses hatred, disappointment, and wounded pride… his rivals fan the hot temper of his tribe… and through the northern jungle, the Sign of the Fish perverted by pagan ritual becomes a terrifying symbol of revolt and obscene death… A handful of white men and women become hostages to fortune as the explosive situation moves towards its barbaric climax.
