Publisher's Summary
The gripping tragi-comedy of a bungled kidnapping in a provincial Argentinean town tells the story of Charley Fortnum, the 'Honorary Consul', a whisky-sodden figure of dubious authority, who is taken by a group of revolutionaries.
As Eduardo Plarr, a local doctor, negotiates with revolutionaries and authorities for Fortnum's release, the corruption of both becomes evident.

Engaging story with flaws
The developments of the main characters are interesting in this story.
Some of the Argentinian accents are ridiculously caricatured and this detracted from my enjoyment of the novel.
It’s an interesting and engaging plot, but the movement of the narrative is hampered by the extended conversations about faith.
