Matt Bolls’ well-intentioned volunteer service in Latin America turns into a nightmare of deceit, rape, murder and international intrigue. His insertion into a remote village and alien culture quickly challenges his naïve notions and assumptions, indeed, his very existence. Matt, aka Gringo Mateo, desperately flees from the many who wish to see him dead, a flight immersing him into a dark world of shadowy foreign figures and events, all in dangerous, violence-plagued locations. Unexpected allies provide him, and his agonizing father, a US congressman, windows of hope along the way. Diamonds, cocaine and smuggled arms are the stock in trade along Matt’s underground trajectory.
