The Name of Game (published by Aryeh Nir Publishing House) is a novel about an Israeli businessman, Michael Brown, who goes to Nigeria to conduct the African business affairs of the tycoon Mister Brock, who is both famous and infamous. Michael becomes trapped in a web of conspiracy, deceit and violence, including an attempt on his life. After he exposes his employer's true intentions, he realizes that the name of the game is cunning and resourcefulness, and only by waging a sophisticated battle of wits will he extricate himself from the trap-and emerge victorious. The story is dark, wild, impulsive and mystical. It takes place in a black, foreign world, and its characters are devious, opportunistic, aggressive, and aware of the black magic that strikes fear into the white man. It is a world in which the dark skinned people know how to exploit their colour, tribalism, and the mysteriousness of their customs to further their manipulations and evil devices. And, in fact, the background of  Yigal Arica and his redheaded wife Lital (yes, yes, in the book, too, businessman Brown's wife is a redhead),  is full of meetings with African kings, chiefs and ceremonies (among other things, they got married in one of the ceremonies). And yes, Yigal Arica, like the hero of his story, has held a senior managerial position in an international business empire in western Africa, then moved over to private business, and set up a marketing infrastructure in the Nigerian Republic for one of the world's best-known Japanese companies.
