About this listen

A heart-racing thriller from the master of adventure.

Ex-mercenary Sonja Kurtz is out for revenge after her daughter Emma is assaulted by an abalone poacher while on a beachside holiday near Cape Town.

When the poacher is murdered, Sonja is targeted by a violent local gangster and must flee the country.

As Sonja leaves a trail of destruction in her wake - from the threatened wilderness of Zimbabwe to the treacherous beaches of northern Mozambique - a concerned Emma must find the courage to rescue her mother.

But is Sonja a cold-blooded killer? Or is there a darker conspiracy taking place in southern Africa's underworld - one that will change their lives forever?

If it wasn't Tony's last in series, i would've returned book. The narrator needs to differentiate characters better and put some emotion into the story.
Good story line though.

Painful narration

Narrator was frustrating with slow speech for some characters. Also incorrect South African pronunciation. Not enough variation for the characters either.

Good story

HATED the narrator. the nasal narration and bad pronunciation was just so distracting. That said, Tony has written a real winner this time around! The ending is so entirely unexpected. It had me crying at the end. The twists and turns, building plotlines and suspense, and well-written action scenes were worth the reading. This is an excellent read and I highly recommend it!

i have loved listening to all Tony Park's books and whilst I enjoyed to story, I have found in tough listening to the stilted jerky narration. I hoped that I would get used to it but not so. For me, it really spoilt the book.

Another great book, disappointing narration

I’m afraid the narration on this book destroyed the book completely for me. I love Tony Parks books but couldn’t continue. Will need to buy the hard cover to finish.

Badly narrated - monotonous spoiled the story completely. Trying to use South African accent instead of just reading the story - 😔

The dreadful narration
