From the Back Cover
"Passionate...exciting...eye-opening." ―The Washington Post
Damon Pierce is a gifted California lawyer whose work is starting to seem soulless. Then, from out of nowhere, two life-altering events take place: First, Damon's wife announces that she's leaving him. Next: A woman from his past reappears. Damon could never forget Marissa Brand Okari, his one-time great love. Now, she's in trouble...and Damon decides to do everything in his power to help her.
"COMPELLING AND CREDIBLE...guaranteed to rouse you to thought."―Richmond Times-Dispatch
Marissa's husband, Bobby Okari, is a freedom fighter in a corrupt west African nation―one that's being torn apart by global lust for its vast supply of oil. One day, during a solar eclipse, Bobby leads a high-profile protest rally against an American oil company...only to see everyone in his home village massacred by government troops. Already an enemy of the country's savage dictator, Bobby is promptly arrested. Now it's up to Damon to take on Bobby's case and save him―and Marissa―from almost certain death. And risk his own life in process.
"This stellar legal thriller both informs and entertains...WILL CLING TO READERS LONG AFTER THE FINAL PAGE IS TURNED."―Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Condition: Bueno. : En esta novela de intriga internacional, Damon Pierce, un abogado estadounidense, se encuentra en un momento crucial de su vida: su divorcio está en curso y su trabajo carece de alma. Entonces, recibe un correo electrónico desesperado de Marissa, una mujer a la que amó años atrás, y decide arriesgarlo todo para responder a su llamada de auxilio. Damon se embarca en una misión para salvar a Bobby Okari, el líder de un movimiento de protesta de África Occidental, de la ejecución por parte del líder corrupto y autocrático del país. Para complicar aún más las cosas está la esposa de Okari, Marissa Brand, con quien Pierce tuvo una relación años antes que nunca ha olvidado; ella, de hecho, lo persuadió para que tomara el caso en primer lugar, y es ella quien juega un papel crucial en el resultado final. Culminando en un juicio espectáculo dramático y una carrera desesperada contra el tiempo, Eclipse combina una narrativa emocionante con una mirada vívida al costo humano de la lujuria global por el petróleo.
