A riveting adventure story, a geopolitical tour de force about the year Hoyle spent in Nigeria on a Fulbright Scholarship, exploring the West African oil frontier. The Niger Delta, supplier of 10% of America's oil, has been targeted as the "new Middle East" of oil security and is an extremely dangerous place. Hoyle's base was Port Harcourt - the same malarial swamp where disease and attacks from jealous warriors once killed the British and where now a second generation of warlords blow up Chevron pipelines to steal the oil and militants kidnap oil workers. Some oil companies have had to shut down their operations altogether.
