A private jet is idling on the FBO’s tarmac. It looks to be a viable alternative. He climbs the airstair, intent on hiring it for a cash advance, only to be met by a hired gun.
Even Nash can’t talk his way out of this one without first being vetted by the plane’s captain.
This time, Jim Nash will leave his Packard behind and fly first-class on a mission that could change the course of history.
Peter Duke is a Canadian author. He resides and writes in a small college town in the Province of Ontario, Canada.
Peter's gypsy spirit has taken him to some strange places in the world, but now he's content to limit his adventures to riding a motorcycle and whatever he might encounter when he's on the road. He's worked in bike shops doing odd jobs from planning and putting on rides down Mexico way, taking care of computer networking and security, and to picking up and delivering motorcycles from the L.A. basin to Las Vegas, among other things.
He's ridden over a lot of North America at one time or another from Canada to Mexico, and from Atlantic to Pacific. By far his favorite ride is up and down the length of the Baja Peninsula, where the people are friendly, the sun always shines and it’s warm in the winter.
Of everything that he has experienced in his all-too-brief life, Africa is perhaps the greatest enigma. It's an amazing continent, rich in people, nature and resources, yet poor in all of those areas, too.
