A Coup In Manila (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

An immersive thriller based on real events as westerners were perilously trapped in the Philippines during an attempted coup.

Behind the adventure is a deep and powerful examination of the exploitation of the Philippines and its people, particularly those in the sex trade, by westerners. A condition made possible by massive economic imbalance.

In the Philippines in 1989, a group of westerners get trapped in a hotel while a coup against the President of the Philippines, Corazon Aquino is taking place. With their lives on the line, they plan their escape. Amid the action, however, there is also a love story between a young American expat caught up in the turmoil and the local bar girl that he loves.

The main events are historically accurate and the reader will find themselves immersed in a world where vast economic inequalities condition the interactions of people of very different backgrounds.
