A tempestuous novel of passion, revolution and high adventure!

From the back:

“Aren’t my kisses worth anything?”

He looked into her tempting, unscrupulous eyes and for answer pressed his lips against her sensuous mouth. Thus did Phebe, honey-colored dancing girl of Saint-Dominigue, light devils of desire in Duncan Stewart. Thus did Phebe come to symbolize Haiti itself, enchanting island with the power to turn men to swine. Wanted for murder in London, Stewart stayed on in the Paris of the West Indies. He practiced medicine amoung voodoo-worshiping blacks in whose veins revolt flowed like molten lava. He won the friendship of men like Toussaint and Henri the First and ultimately played a part in the deadliest, lustiest pageant in the entire history of the Western Hemisphere!
