内容説明

Fifty years ago, exotic stories began to appear in the world's press about settlers on the remote Galapagos island of Floreana. The tales were of nudism, free love communes, stainless steel dentures - a latter-day Garden of Eden. But the truth was even stranger. Friedrich Ritter, an eccentric German intellectual, and his long-suffering companion Dora Strauch, were the first arrivals. Once established they were soon joined by others. Most bizarre and dangerous was the self-styled Baroness Wagner-Bosquet who ruled her three young male lovers with a riding crop, a pearl handled revolver and insatiable sexual demands - terrorizing the other settlers. Her mysterious disappearance and the discovery of unidentified bodies on a nearby island perplexed the world. This book looks at what happened.
