The Lion Killer

The Dark Continent Chronicles, Book 1

De: James S. Gardner

Narrado por: Philip Battley

James Gardner weaves both the brutality and the compassion of modern Africa into his thriller, The Lion Killer.

His protagonist, Rhodesian war hero Rigby Croxford, is hired by the unscrupulous American litigator Max Turner to rescue his son from Congolese rebels after a peaceful safari to see the mountain gorillas turns into a bloodbath of rape and murder. Croxford is apprehensive about Max’s hidden agenda, but it’s too late to back out.

The adventure has more twists than the Zambezi River with danger at every bend. He takes his listeners through the visual wreckage of Zimbabwe to the genocide wreaking havoc in the Sudan. You will experience Africa’s cruelty from a front row seat, and you will discover the kindness of people who have nothing left but hope. You’ll know the earthy smell of the bush veldt and the perfumed scent of a Ugandan jungle.

The Lion Killer will thrill you.

Great thriller

An incredible story. I loved the author's enlightening mingling of suspense, history and politics. His description of the characters made it easy to picture them with fondness or disgust. The final scene was frightening suspense. A work of loyalty, honor, and greed. I look forward to the screen version.

Fabulous book by James Gardner

I have listened to hundreds of audible books and this one is by far my favorite! I enjoyed every minute of it! The details about Africa , the colorful charcters and the story itself were absolutely fantastic!
