This zany satire of Americans and other expatriates in the Middle East is set in Kuwait after the Gulf War. It is a tale of international intrigue and contains, within the spoof, suspense and a murder mystery.
The American hero, Ed Duffy, an educated Tennessee ne'er do-well is sent to kuwait to teach English to Kuwaiti military personnel scheduled to come to the U,S. to learn to operate Patriot missiles. The novel is based on the author's own experience doing the same thing. Duffy is drawn into a web of intrigue involving wacko Americans, scheming Arabs, drunken Russians - and the feuds of rival intelligence agencies.
