Summary:

When Texas-based American Exports, Inc., finds its operations in Latin American severely hindered by heavy taxation, fraud, and outright seizures, they hire Marc Throne, ex-Special Forces in Vietnam and strongly anti-communist, to head its "sales department" and task him with bringing democracy and the free-enterprise system to Guiania, a small country selected as a test case in ultramodern subversion techniques. Little Guiania is to be made a "pillar of freedom in South America" by fair means or foul.--BOOK JACKET
