Description
Santa Marta is a small, sunny, seaside town in California One morning its inhabitants awake to find a dark shadow looming out of the water- an offshore oil-rig. And Santa Marta will never be the same again.
As a giant oil company fights to control the town and its resources, the obvious threat is the likelihood of a major spillage. But the struggle also brings something more sinister-the corruption and destruction of the people whose lives it affects. Some are seduced willingly, anxious to trade their consciences - and their bodies-for a slice of the action. This is a golden opportunity for instant wealth and power. But there are others prepared to fight against pollution and disaster.
