Portobello Two Book
PORTOBELLO: Two is the midway point for a three-book series describing civil, political, racial unrest in the Caribbean's Turks & Caicos Islands. The time line is 1989-1992, a period when hundreds of millions in U.S. sourced dollars flooded the British administered colony causing real estate values to skyrocket from $50,000 for two acres on Grace Bay (1980) to numbers approaching $50,000 per-running-front-foot on the same beach (late 90s). Coincidentally, huge sums of money transferred to the colony's 'offshore' banks quickly grew under the lenient 'do not ask - do not tell' banking system. This 'story' is pure fiction; the characters are equally-pure 'TCI' - native and ex-pat. The story is exceptionally rich in intrigue, state-of-the-art (1990) technology, and a cast of characters ranging from the poorest, least-educated native black to Fidel Castro and British Ministers of Government. Move over Herman Wouk ('Don't Stop the Carnival;' 1965); this is your 40+ year update!Read More
