YGraham Greene was a marvelous novelist especially using exotic locations and characters that are richly drawn with all characters, that are richly drawn with all their humanity, flaws, and vulnerabilities. A stunning portrait of both colonial Africa and her all too human denizens. An excellent book the story is perfectly paced and deeply emotional.
Story of a good man enmeshed in love, intrigue and evil in a west African coastal town. He is a strict police commissioner and by severe responsibility to his wife, Louise. For whom he cares with a fatal pity. And tragedy happens here the officer fall in love with young widow Helen, and the story starts here. And the novel is suspenseful, fascinating and finally tragic.
