Set in 1993, Paul and Carol Go to Guatemala is part travelogue, part social commentary and part romance. The novel chronicles a couple’s budding relationship as they explore a wild and wonderful third-world country in the final throes of a civil war. Through Carol’s journal entries, it weaves the compelling story of two wayward travelers who learn to appreciate the raw beauty of a ravaged land…and fall in love along the way-with Guatemala and each other. But will they survive lost luggage, chicken busses, active volcanoes, Mayan ruins, food poisoning and a fateful game of ‘Hearts?’ Time will tell.
