Description
Grace is an English professor in Toronto. She becomes involved with a younger man who claims to be from Buenos Aires. Eddy is a spinner of lovely tales, and even when Grace doubts his stories and begins to recognize that he is heavily involved in drug trafficking, she allows the deception to carry on. The Drum King is a sensually told, suspenseful novel that hooks the reader and pulls them into a world of complex characters and an engaging plot.
". . . intriguing, imaginative and, above all, a good read."
-The Globe and Mail
