Socket

By (author): David Zimmerman

‘Socket’ tells the gripping tale of Ronald Percy, an international aid worker who travels to Ethiopia to assist with an irrigation project for the African Development Organization. Upon arrival, he is unable to locate his agents or company representatives, and soon finds himself enmeshed in a web of bureaucracy and state corruption. ‘Socket’ was selected as the Grand Winner from over 400 entries in the 2001 International 3-Day Novel-Writing Contest.
