Story
In 2012 retired South African general Johan Jooste was parachuted into the seemingly unwinnable war against rhino poaching in the Kruger National Park. With poaching spiralling out of control, Jooste was given the mandate to 'go military', to convert Kruger's ranger corps into a para-military force capable of taking the fight to poachers. Aged 60, white, and a veteran of 35 years of military service, Jooste's controversial appointment was immediately met with resentment and hostility by elements of South African National Parks, the police, and even the military he had served with.

Good yarn, disappointing narration
Having lived in South Africa and conscripted into the conflict in Namibia in the eighties, I can relate to the events in this story. Tony Park always researches his novels well. I felt that he laboured the theme of rhino horn poaching rather excessively, and that detracted from the overall momentum of the plot. I did like the fact that the author brought to light the futility of this dirty proxy war, and the avarice and greed of personal agendas that make any war so abhorrent.
My only real gripe with this audio book is the narrator. His fake South African and German accents grate on the nerves, and his pronunciation of Afrikaans words and Namibian place names is cringe worthy. With a little homework, the narrator could have rendered a much more polished performance.
