The warm blue water of the islands is the facade behind which boils centuries of hate and mistrust among the confluenced people who inhabit the fair shores. Slavery's final hateful act is to not allow the past to be forgotten. It rushes constantly to the reptilian portion of everyman's brain and brings civilization back to its beginnings in the slash of a blade or the flash of an explosion. Kodi is singled out because his lover is of another race and from that ill-founded beginning there comes enough death and hate to rival equally dark periods of history. When next the reader disembarks from his cruise ship, he/she will see in those staring eyes and dark alleys, scenes one had hoped were forever washed from human experience.
