Set in the steamy jungles and gritty streets of Panama City in the late 1980s, The Peace of Wild Things braids together the story of three ex-patriots: a spiritist witch serving as a spy for the political underground, an orphaned sixteen-year old beauty who mingles with the social elite while searching for her father, and a young soldier in the American army, whose involvement with a corrupt First Sergeant puts his life at risk. While the country spirals out of control, these three spin a web of lies, passion, and love that result in a profound loss of innocence and finally redemption.
