Documentary filmmaker Dara Barr is at the top of her game and looking for bigger challenges. That?COs why she?COs come to Djibouti, on the Horn of Africa, with her right-hand man, six-foot-six, seventy-two-year-old African American seafarer Xavier LeBo, to film modern-day pirates hijacking merchant ships. But almost no one here is who he seems to be. Dijibouti?COs most successful, Mercedes-driving pirate seems to be a good guy, while his pal, a cultured Saudi diplomat, has dubious connections. Texas billionaire Billy Wynn plays mysterious roles as the mood strikes him, especially when dealing with his nifty fashion model girlfriend, Helene. And then there?COs Jama Raisuli, a black al Qaeda terrorist from Miami, who?COs vowed to blow up something big.
