Publisher's Synopsis
Tambourine Man is wide in its scope, and epic in its historical sweep. It begins with an idea, so audacious that it beggars belief, but it works, and Paulo Spiere becomes a very rich man. From the start Paulo is both the victim and the villain. As his fortune increases exponentially he is faced with the type of problems that only extreme wealth can bring, and only extreme ruthlessness can resolve. Wealth brings power; extreme wealth brings unrivalled power, but are these two, Paulo's servant or his master? Paulo's journey takes him through the north Atlantic killing grounds of the second world war, through Hitler's death camps, and beyond to London in the 1960s . Through the squalor in North Africa to the luxury and hedonism of 20th century life in California
