Evil's Root

Award winning author Michael Segedy won the silver medal award in the 2013 Readers' Favorite International Book Award Contest 2016 Best Indie Book Award for best adventure novel. Michael Segedy's novel tells the story of Steve Collins, an expatriate American journalist living in Peru, who is investigating the death of a U.S. Senator who was allegedly killed by leftist-guerrillas. As he delves deeper into the story, Collins ventures into the jungles of Peru and becomes entangled in a web of schemes involving drug traffickers, guerrillas, diplomats, anti-terrorism operatives, and others who threaten to kill his story and perhaps, ultimately, him. Here is a seductive expatriate's tale, brimming with intrigue, politics, and humor. -- Jake Halpern, author of the New York Times Pulitzer Prize–winning graphic story Welcome to the New World Read less
