More about the book

Set in the fictional town of Sulaco, the narrative follows Senõr Gould, an English expatriate who entrusts his loyal longshoreman, Nostromo, with hiding a vast silver treasure amidst escalating violence in Costaguana. Initially viewed as incorruptible, Nostromo's character deteriorates as he grapples with greed and the lure of wealth, leading to his downfall. The story explores themes of corruption, the destructive influence of money, and the complexities of human nature against a backdrop of South America's rich landscape and turbulent politics.
