Opis

A Dark Country is a tale of an ordinary man from Montana, Jack Duncan; hunting guide, contractor, family man, who when pushed into a corner by his own personal financial collapse, makes "a deal with the devil." The "devil," James Beck, is an extraordinarily wealthy man and old hunting client of Duncan's who entangles him in a sporting club where the game is the apex of all predators: man. The story takes the reader on a thrilling adventure from the wilds of Montana to the seas and jungles of Mexico and Central America from the point of view of Jack Duncan. Bogart's intimate knowledge and love of nature and the outdoors shines in Duncan's vision of the wild beauty that surrounds him while at the same time looking inward at the human potential for darkness and evil. Duncan's internal quest explores themes of greed, morality, and infidelity on his journey of self discovery and his attempts to extricate himself from good intentions gone bad.
