Out on the Rim
Ross Thomas
What if you were offered a gig by some shadowy and well-financed interests to funnel five million dollars to rebels holed up in the Philippine mountains? They need to fund a revolt against the Aquino government and a resourceful and gutsy team to engineer it. And what a team it is: Booth Stallings, a terrorism expert, is the only man the rebel leader trusts as a liaison; Georgia Blue is a colorful, statuesque female bodyguard; “ Otherguy” Overby— so called for his skill in making sure whenever he's in trouble, that the other guy did it— is their point man; and for the sake of local expertise, is Artie Wu— the illegitimate son of the illegitimate daughter of the Boy Emperor of China— and his slick, often explosive partner Quincy Durant. None of them are very interested in the political power struggle, but five million dollars? That's another story!
