Description

The Allies are landing in Normandy as Hank Simmons journeys from San Francisco to Dhahran: FDR can't win WWII without petroleum from a desert kingdom no older than his presidency. Hank's mission is to help build the Arabian American Oil Company's first refinery and manage its marine terminal. He doesn't know that his wife Gloria is falling for another propagandist at the Pacific branch of OWI. Although German submarines still lurk in the Arabian Sea, the gravest threat to the Ras Tanura project is the lack of skilled labor. An OSS agent from Wall Street helps Hank recruit the workers needed in the fallen capital of Italian East Africa and keep his promise to send their pay to families in provinces that remain under Nazi control.Living conditions for the Italian and Muslim workers on the Persian Gulf are far worse than for Americans. During a grueling, hungry summer, progress inside the segregated concession only worsens the inequities. A food riot in Saudi Camp in Ras Tanura is followed by a general strike that is brutally put down by the slave soldiers of the Wahhabi emirs. As atomic bombs are falling in Japan, the balance of power begins to shift inside the concession when Hank's friends, the leftist leaders in Italian Camp, demand that US diplomats arbitrate their grievances, followed by a deeper crisis when Al-Saud sides with their fellow Arabs against the American oilmen.
