On the Edge of Paradise
The Caribbean is one of the world's great tropical paradises. Its lush greenery, coral reefs, sparkling seas and sands attract a growing number of tourists - particularly to the tiny islands of the West Indies, like Barbados and St Lucia. But behind the idyll the islands are struggling to survive. A complex web of life is becoming unstable: this paradise is balanced on a knife-edge.

2:A Strange Enemy Country
The fighting is over. The British settle down in a country and among a people about which they know almost nothing. Official attitudes are hostile. British and Germans will not mix.

And in a country where the cigarette is the only real currency, few are untainted by corruption. But as time goes by. both sides begin to discover each other as human beings rather than stereo-
I types. Strangers have become neighbours.
