- Summary
- A comic odyssey of a hapless hero ensnared by globalization, humanitarian aid, and the international sex trade, this story takes place in a pitiless world where the have-nots will do anything to become haves, while the privileged don't know what to live for. Moises Froissard has found the career opportunity of his dreams. After a start with an idealistic humanitarian aid group, he quickly wises up to the harsh reality of a world in which human life is just another product in a competitive marketplace. Now he travels the globe on the trail of illegal immigrants, refugees, and other ordinary souls brought low by war, natural disaster, or economic collapse. Scouting the slums and gutters of the world, Moises's task is to unearth nature's most beautiful men, women, and children and save them--for a top-price international sex club.--From publisher description.
