Readers had waited a quarter of a century to learn what became of the narrator and the strange Morgan brothers of Gentlemen. Here they discover that the premise of that book has shifted: much of the brothers' story was a lie, and Henry Morgan's halo slips badly. What follows is another dark tale of arms dealing, persecution mania and abuses by the state, a game with illusion that turns on fear, life-changing choices and the long reach of lies.
