About this listen
The son of a wealthy plantation owner and a doting mother, Mungo St John is accustomed to the wealth and luxuries his privilege has afforded him. That is until he returns from university to discover his family ruined, his inheritance stolen and his childhood sweetheart, Camilla, taken by the conniving Chester Marion. Fuelled by anger and love, Mungo swears vengeance and devotes his life to saving Camilla - and destroying Chester.
Camilla, trapped in New Orleans, powerless to her position as a kept slave and suffering at the hands of Chester's brutish behaviour, must learn to do whatever it takes to survive.
As Mungo battles his own fate and misfortune to achieve the revenge that drives him and regain his power in the world, he must question what it takes for a man to survive when he has nothing and what he is willing to do in order to get what he wants.
An action-packed and gripping adventure by best-selling author Wilbur Smith about one man's quest for revenge, the brutality of slavery in America and the imbalance between humans that can drive - or defeat - us.

A good story
A very good story. I enjoy all of Wilbur Smith books. He gets things moving from the first page.

Predictable from the opening chapters. Failed to get me in.
Have enjoyed several of Smith’s earlier books, but this just seemed to be a variation on a old and predictable theme.

Well written...as always... but the core story?
I thought this story was OK but found the duplicitous perspective of Mungo (who thought of that as a name?) toward black people very challenging to accept. Ultimately, he was completely self absorbed, certainly unusually immature for a lead character, and got away with extreme bad behaviour.
