✦ Synopsis

Review

"A superb storyteller with a gift for provoking controversy."
β€”_New York Times_

β€œGreene had the sharpest eyes for trouble, the finest nose for human weaknesses, and was pitilessly honest in his observations . . . For experience of a whole century he was the man within.”
β€”Norman Sherry, Independent

Product Description

With a new introduction by James Wood

Scobie, a police officer serving in a wartime west-African state, is distrusted β€” being scrupulously honest and immune to bribery. But then he falls in love, and in so doing, he is forced to betray everything he believes in, with drastic and tragic consequences.
