Description

Summary Driven by their need for money, three former Pennsylvania state corrections officers agree to bodyguard Philadelphia realtor and philanthropist Jeremiah Lassiter during a peace mission to West Africa. Lassiter hoped to use his wealth to end the civil war in Sierra Leone, where he was born. His special bodyguards hoped to climb out of near poverty and regain the middle-class lifestyles they lost when the state privatized their jobs. Gone were the big paychecks--the $100,000 salaries they earned from scheduled overtime--and gone were the prestige and the self-actualization they enjoyed as members of the Corrections Emergency Response Team (CERT), a SWAT of sorts whose job was to put down riots and extract violent inmates. But it was their little known special training as security for the governor that led Lassiter to employ them as his protectors. And so it was that in December 1995, the Lassiter party landed in Freetown, Sierra Leone´s capital city, with confidence in their hearts. They expected to teach the Leoneans how to make money. Instead, they would learn a few lessons themselves in the meanings of sacrifice and loyalty, life and death.
