Drawn Into Danger: Living on the Edge in the Sahara Keith Costelloe

Dave is 24 when he gets his first job teaching English in Algeria in 1978. He's not sure what to expect, but he knows he wants to escape the boredom of an 'ordinary' job in the UK. Travel calls to him. He longs to explore different cultures and have new experiences, in part so he can forget his previous life and friends. When he arrives in Algeria, he soon realizes he's in a completely different world. He starts to feel that Algeria might allow him to explore his bisexuality further. However, as he's drawn into the local culture, events begin to control him. In helping a friend get revenge, he is drawn into a secret police operation with unimagined consequences. Is revenge really worth it? Will he lose his freedom because he chooses to do the right thing?
