Summary
Her colleague wants to promote hard hitting, yet inoffensive publicity
campaigns but these all get vetoed or scuppered by central or local
governments. Selby goes to a country devastated by a hurricane and
promptly gets kidnapped by guerrillas. the story is interspersed with
short sketches: a thief steals money for charity and is angry when they
wont accept it; a Sheik buys Marks and Spencer and local dignitaries
enter a pie throwing contest.
