Acerca de esta escucha
In a land where survival is a struggle, can a broken man find redemption?
When Lieutenant James Bowman steps off the train in 1920s Salisbury, Rhodesia, he carries more than his kitbag—he bears the weight of war trauma and abandoned love...
His encounter with Colonel Voss, an aging adventurer with tales of ancient civilisations and promises of glory, offers an escape from his haunted past. "The legend has it there was a great civilisation here when we in Europe were still climbing trees and living in caves," Voss claims, drawing Jim into a dangerous expedition into Africa's heartland.
As they prepare for their journey into the unmapped wilderness, Jim finds himself torn between suspicion and fascination. Is Voss a charlatan preying on newcomers, or does he truly know the location of a lost empire that predates Christ?
Against the backdrop of colonial Africa, where the land itself becomes both adversary and seducer, Jim must decide if the promise of redemption is worth risking everything. For in the shadow of empire, among beasts both wild and human, the greatest peril may be the burden of expectations he carries from a world away.
Mad Dogs and Englishmen is the third book in the Brigandshaw Chronicles, where the legacy of adventure and family continues to unfold.

Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time.

Union soldier John Chenneville suffered a traumatic head wound in battle. His recovery took the better part of a year as he struggled to regain his senses and mobility. By the time he returned home, the Civil War was over, but tragedy awaited. John’s beloved sister and her family had been brutally murdered. Their killer goes by many names. He fought for the North in the late unpleasantness, and wore a badge in the name of the law. But the man John knows as A. J. Dodd is little more than a rabid animal, slaughtering without reason or remorse, needing to be put down.
