BOOK 1 of OUR MAN IN MAZITA series. 

Diffident hero, Bob Dukes, is a recently appointed and inexperienced diplomat working for Her Majesty's Britannic Government in the early sixties on the island of Mazita off the East African coast. As well as learning his new duties, he is faced with the task of being a single father to his three children. Bob's first official task is to organize a dinner for his boss, the Governor Designate of Mazita, who wishes to establish cordial relations with local bigwigs drawn from the many different cultures. Add to this minefield a reluctant first course and you will see why readers enjoy this story. The satirical undertones of this story make it suitable for both adults and young adults.
