The Volunteer's Tale: Witches, Wizards, the Tortoise and the Bear

It's 1966. Just finishing college, James Stone, 22, is accepted into Peace Corps training for Nigeria Project 29. Inexperienced but curious to explore the world and his sexual orientation, Jim unwittingly becomes embroiled in political and tribal maneuverings during training in Los Angeles that tremendously impact his daily life and very survival while in Nigeria. Often scared, confused, manipulated, will Jim catch on to the undercurrents engulfing him? Will he find inner strength to endure through harassment, snakes, heat, illness, lies, murders, tribal rituals and Ju-Ju men? Can he and his friends escape when civil war breaks out? Based on true experiences.
