Summary: | In 1995 the paradise island of Montserrat, a tiny British Crown Colony in the Caribbean, has reggae and calypso in the air and cricket on the village greens. The new governor and police commissioner are enjoying the local combination of Irish and African heritage in a place where the only crime is stealin' time. But towering over the St Patrick's Day revellers is the silent presence of Chance's Peak. If anyone ever knew it was a sleeping volcano, they have forgotten it for now. Until the mountain begins to wake.
