The Name of the Game |
  |
"If this is the game, I'll play
it till the end."
The ring of the telephone rips through the tranquillity of Michael Brown's
routine morning. After a short deliberation, he accepts the surprising offer
he simply can't refuse. After a ten-year absence from the business world, he
becomes the manager of the African corporate empire owned by Mr. Brock, a
famous and infamous tycoon.
Michael is quickly swept up by a dizzying chain of events and becomes
trapped in a web of conspiracy, deceit and violence, including an attempt on
his life. Once he exposes his employer's true intentions, he realizes that
only waging a sophisticated battle of wits and enlisted the aid of a few
loyal friends will extricate
himself from the trap-and emerge victorious.
Intellect and Cunning are the Name of the Game
The Name of the Game, a riveting novel that combines high-quality
literature and captivating suspense, is based on autobiographical elements.
Yigal Arica went to Nigeria as a businessman and encountered a reality that
exceeds all imagination. Against the backdrop of Nigeria's landscapes,
cultures, tribal ceremonies, wild impulses and colourful characters, Arica
unfolds the rhythmic plot and reveals a world that is both magical and
threatening - a world in which whites and foreigners play have no part.
