At the end of the nineteenth century, thousands of Jamaicans journeyed to Ecuador to fulfill their dreams for their future. But, to secure this dream, they had to accomplish their goal, which was to build President Eloy Alfaro's dream project - a railroad system that would connect Guayaquil and Quito. In order to succeed, they had to conquer La nariz del diablo (The Devil's Nose), one of the most dangerous peaks in the Andes Mountain. This novel of historical fiction relates one of the greatest feats of engineering from the viewpoint of the Jamaican workers. It is the story of hope, faith, trials, despair and triumph.
