Description

The problem of world hunger has been solved by Dr. Nathan Fiker, beloved head of Hallita Inc. Several days prior to his acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize, Dr. Fiker is wrapping up work at his lab in Costa Rica when university professors Gary Berg and Richard Stenvick lead a class of students to the country for a short term cross-cultural. Dr. Stenvick, an ultra-athletic caffeine addict, begins a whirlwind hiking tour that leaves many of the students gasping for breath. Dr. Berg meets up with Paul Hargren, a former student. Following a conversation over dinner, Berg agrees to temporarily part ways with his class to look into an invasive corn crop that’s ruining Hargren’s research. Their investigation soon leads to Fiker’s research facility, where their concerns are dismissed by a condescending assistant. An attempt on their lives hours later forces the two scientists into hiding and confirms their suspicion that they’d stumbled upon a nefarious plan. Hargren enlists the aid of an epicurean CIA operative and they set out to uncover Fiker’s secret. Meanwhile, Stenvick’s group suffers one mishap after another at the hands of two dysfunctional assassins hired to ensure their silence by arranging spectacular accidents. A shocking discovery sets Berg on a race to find an answer before Fiker takes the podium for his acceptance speech. Set amidst the beautiful Costa Rican countryside, "You Bring the Coffee, I’ll Save the World" combines harrowing adventure, scientific research, theological inquiry, interesting vehicles, gourmet food and excessive coffee consumption in a light-hearted foray into the dangers of unrestrained corporate power and corrupted philanthropy.
