The national bestselling novel & New York Times notable book is now a major motion picture starring Johnny Depp & written for the screen & directed by Bruce Robinson. The Rum Diary, read by Campbell Scott. Begun in 1959 by a twenty-two-year-old Hunter S. Thompson, The Rum Diary is a brilliantly tangled love story of jealousy, treachery, & violent alcoholic lust in the Caribbean boom-town that was San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the late 1950's.

Product Description

Sally Page is an MI5 'footie', a junior Secret Service Agent who maintains 'legends': fake identities or footprints used by real spies.

Her day consists of maintaining flats & houses where the legends allegedly live, doing online shopping, using payment, loyalty & travel cards & going on social media in their names
- anything to give the impression to hostile surveillance that the legends are living, breathing individuals.

One day she goes out for coffee leaving the safe house from which she & her fellow footies operate.

When she comes back they have all been murdered & she barely escapes with her own life.

She is on the run: but from whom she has no idea.

Worse, her bosses at MI5 seem powerless to help her. To live, she will have to use all the lies & false identities she has so carefully created while discovering the truth...
