About this listen

A nail-biting story of courage, bravery, rebellion and war from the master of adventure fiction.

The war is over; Hitler is dead - and yet his evil legacy lives on. Saffron Courtney and her beloved husband, Gerhard, only just survived the brutal conflict, but Gerhard's Nazi-supporting brother, Konrad, is still free and determined to regain power. As a dangerous game of cat and mouse develops, a plot against the couple begins to stir. One that will have ramifications throughout Europe....

Further afield in Kenya, the last outcrop of the colonial empire is feeling the stirrings of rebellion. As the situation becomes violent, and the Courtney family home is under threat, Leon Courtney finds himself caught between two powerful sides - and a battle for the freedom of a country.

Completing the Quadrilogy

This book basically finishes off the 4 book story of Leon Courtney and family so its a must read for anyone who enjoyed Assegai in my opinion..You can tell someone other than Wilbur Smith wrote this book (not by a lot) but it still rounds off the story very well..Personally I really enjoyed it the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is at the end of the book a certain character wasn't completely rounded off so we are left to surmise what happened to that character...An epilogue of that character meeting that characters fate would have been a nice addition but not essential...Well worth a read.

Action packed sequel to Courtney's War

As always, Wilbur Smith's books are enthralling & action packed. I enjoy the historical aspects of the novel, ie having an understanding, albeit limited, of the Africa of the past & post-WW11.
The narrator is easy to listen to.
