Sean Flynn is currently out of a job. His life has been a series of disappointments. And there doesn't seem to be any hope for change on the horizon. Ten years as a narcotics agent ended in frustration and now a once promising career as a stockbroker appears destined to dissolve the same way. Then a telephone call from Tom Morris, an old friend and former police officer, changes the course of his life forever. At the request of Morris, Flynn agrees to help track down Marcus Lowell, a money launderer and drug dealer, in the Bahamas. Lowell has fled the country on his $1 million bond and is setting up one last drug deal before he disappears forever. If Flynn can locate and help bring Lowell back, he'll share in the reward and be able to get back on his feet. What Flynn and his Morris don't know is that Lowell has been assisted in his escape by the United States government. Flynn goes to the Bahamas to begin his search and meets Sydney Greyson, a beautiful banker in Nassau, and the woman of his dreams. They begin a whirlwind romance and, during a dinner date, she introduces him to Lowell at a local restaurant. Only Lowell is now Thomas Andrews, a wealthy customer of Sydney's bank. In order to get close to Lowell/Andrews, Flynn agrees to go out with Lowell and his girlfriend, Amanda Blair, on his boat the next day for some diving. During the outing, Lowell offers him a job delivering some money to a few "friends" in Miami for a business deal. All he has to do is put the money in a locker at the airport, exchange the locker key for another key with one of the associates, and bring the new key back to Lowell. Realizing that the business' is drugs, Sean accepts the job, hoping to find out where Lowell is staying. Flynn and Morris follow Lowell to his refuge on a small island and make plans to grab Lowell after a quick look at the residence. While sneaking a look at Lowell's house, Flynn and Morris are surprised by Lowell and his drug associates. Flynn is severely wounded and forced to watch helplessly as his friend is brutally murdered by Lowell and his associates. After a torturous escape through the island's mountainous undergrowth, Flynn vows to avenge his friend's horrible death. Flynn calls on his old narcotics partner, now an agent with the DEA, for help in setting a trap for Lowell and his associates in Miami. He devises an operation designed to take place at the Miami airport. It's an excellent plan except for one detail. If he takes part in the deal, Sydney will leave him. She's from a different world where there is no place for violence. Painfully wounded and enraged by the brutal murder of his friend, Sean must choose between love and revenge. A choice he must live with the rest of his life.

Adventures in Chaos

American Intervention for Reform in the Third World

By: Douglas J. Macdonald,Robert James Nelson

Can--or should--the United States try to promote reform in client states in the Third World? This question, which reverberates through American foreign policy, is at the heart of Adventures in Chaos. A faltering friendly state, in danger of falling to hostile forces, presents the U.S. with three options: withdraw, bolster the existing government, or try to reform it. Douglas Macdonald defines the circumstances that call these policy options into play, combining an analysis of domestic politics in the U. S., cognitive theories of decision making, and theories of power relations drawn from sociology, economics, and political science. He examines the conditions that promote the reformist option and then explores strategies for improving the success of reformist intervention in the future. In order to identify problems in this policy--and to propose solutions--Macdonald focuses on three case studies of reformist intervention in Asia: China, 1946-1948; the Philippines, 1950-1953; and Vietnam, 1961-1963. Striking similarities in these cases suggest that such policy dilemmas are a function of the global role played by the U.S., especially during the Cold War. Though this role is changing, Macdonald foresees future applications for the lessons his study offers. A challenge to the conventional wisdom on reformist intervention, Adventures in Chaos--through extensive archival research--displays a theoretical and historical depth often lacking in treatments of the subject.
