Johnny Hand is in love with life, freedom and the unbridled pleasures of sex. In the brawling, raw world of sea-going men, every woman in every bed in every port is a new challenge- from Lupe, the fantastic creature who shrugged off her marriage vows as easily as her dress, to Chelo, the teenybopper temptress who demanded that Johnny be her first man- and she his last woman for a long, long time...
Here is a novel that swells with life and explodes with action- from the deadly perils of Cuban gun-running to the scorching love-nests of Mexico...shocking, frank and powerful.
