Beneath the unforgiving, blazing heat of the African sun, two men and a woman embark on a savage hunt. A hunt that will tear their safe safari apart, plunging them into the restless tides of a deadly civil war.

For Sean Courtney, veteran guerrilla fighter it is a time to fight and a time to find a deep and passionate love. For beautiful Claudia Monterro it is a time to face the ultimate test in a world where American values count for nothing. And for Ricardo, her father, a rich tycoon, it is a time to confront a dangerous obsession.

Sweeping from the great hunting grounds of Zimbabwe to the killing fields of Mozambique, this is a brilliant novel by the master of action and adventure that vibrates with deep feeling for the dark heart of Africa.
