About this listen

 In a luxury private safari lodge in Kruger National Park, Detective Sergeant Tom Furey has just woken to a protection officer's worst nightmare. The VIP in his charge, British government minister, Robert Greeves, has been abducted. Knowing his career is on the line, Furey vows not to stop searching until Greeves is found - dead or alive. He and his South African counterpart, Inspector Sannie van Rensburg, go against official orders and start the hunt for the kidnappers through the outer limits of the national park, to the coastal waters of Mozambique. Increasingly drawn to Tom, Sannie can't resist involving herself in his dangerous mission, even risking her job to help him.©2008 Tony Park. (P)2009 Bolinda Publishing Suspense Thriller & Suspense

Editorial reviews

Kruger National Park in north-western South Africa is the beautiful and explosive setting for Silent Predator, Tony Park’s thriller of kidnapping and exotic adventure. Australian actor Mark Davis provides the swarthy voice that carries the listener through the big game park all the way to the dangerous waters of Mozambique. Park, who in real life maintains a tent with his wife in the Kruger, knows his territory well.

The story focuses on Detective Sergeant Tom Furey and his high-stakes search for a kidnapped government official. He is joined in the hunt by Sannie van Rensburg, a sexy and driven inspector who is drawn to Furey with a fury. Together, Sanni and Tom must fight predators from the human to the reptilian and more.

Great book made very real as we have been to South Africa and visited some of the places named in the book. I’m looking forward to listening to more of his books

Although I liked the story, I found the pronunciation of some words annoyingly wrong and noticed that the South African characters were read in one tone of voice which a bit boring to listen to.

A good story

the negative first - Narrator cannot pronounce Native African and Afrikaans words - Frustrating. But otherwise good performance.
Sex scenes too graphic and too many - not needed if story line is strong.
Boy gets Girl ending every book so far.. in real life Africa the good people and hero’s die.
Now the positive - absolutely fantastic reading a book about Africa. The places and antidotes bring back memories and experiences I had forgotten. The books so far capture the fact that in Africa you Live Life - and live 5 lifetimes of a city dwelling computer geek.
The story’s have twists and turns that I really did not expect.
Overall Great Books so far - Well Done and I will read the rest ASAP

Overall Good Book

Another great book from a writer who really knows his stuff.
Fast paced and full of action.
Really good characters that are completely plausible and Tony keeps you guessing the whole way through.
I started off reading the book but being time poor listened from halfway on Audio Book wanting to get stuck in traffic just to listen to more.
Can't wait to get into The Hunter.

Cracking pace from go to wo.
