The president’s life was saved by his friend and adjutant, Lieutenant Colonel Gonzalo Vargas, Pedro’s father. And the young would-be assassin turns out to be Pedro’s cousin, who is sentenced to death. Before being employed by The Washington Post, John first arrived in Peru when his father’s patron, Mr James Randall III, an important Boston businessman, enticed him to join an economic mission advising the Peruvian government.

Randall demands that John spies on the sugar cane plantation and help him buy it at a distressed low price. John refuses and quarrels violently with Randall, who swears revenge.John discovers a mysterious report from Randall, scheming to become USA Vice President and then replace the President by foul means.

But Haya accused him of electoral fraud. Sanchez-Cerro’s regime soon turns authoritarian, banning democratic opposition led by Haya’s party.
