- Summary:
-
“Dead Reckoning is a play in two acts. It revolves around the aspirations of Al Spencer, a fictitious former Australian politician turned businessman, to make a fortune in Asia. During his political career based in northern Australia, he championed the cause of close ties between Australia and Asia. But as his business venture – a boutique hotel in the southern Philippines – nears completion, problems threaten his dream and undermine his faith in Asian investment. These problems expose Al Spencer an element of latent racism, a failure to come to terms with Asian points of view, a touch of misogyny, and a distrust of ‘friends’ he had sought to use in promotion of his venture.”--Back cover.
