Nathan Conrad è un medico. Cerca di curare i malati mentali più gravi, i casi disperati. Lo chiamano lo "psichiatra dei dannati". Ogni sera torna a casa e tira il fiato. Ma un bel mattino d'ottobre la follia bussa alla sua porta, anzi lo chiama al telefono : "Buongiorno dottor Conrad: ascoltami. Non dire una parola. Ho tua figlia".
As the world around him burns with passion and death, professional hunter and guerrilla fighter Sean Courtney is trapped between his worst enemies, an overwhelming love for a woman, and his instincts to survive -- and kill.
It is the dawn of the eighteenth century. At the farthest edges of the known world, the mighty East India Trading Company suffers catastrophic losses from pirates of the high seas.

'Let yourself be blown away by the hurricane of storytelling that is Monsoon... a fantastic reading experience.'

Ukáže sa totiž, že Stalin zanechal ľudstvu dedičstvo, aké by si nikto nepripustil ani v najbujnejšej fantázii...
