About this listen

It was in Mexico that he first learnt how to exploit his extraordinary good looks and to develop his natural winning ways with women. By the age of 17 his companions had nicknamed him 'The Golden Fox', and his reputation as an irresistible lover was established.

A country in conflict. A family torn apart.

Isabella, Shasa Courtney's beloved daughter, enjoys all the freedoms London in the '60s can offer. So when a beautiful, charming man appears and sweeps her off her feet, why would she resist? But her lover is no simple admirer - he is Ramon de Santiago y Machado, a KGB operative known as Golden Fox, and his mission is to recruit her as an agent and uncover her father's secret business dealings.

With this knowledge, Ramon and his comrades plan to end white rule in Africa, whatever the cost. Isabella must make a choice about who she will betray - her father and her country or her son and the man she loves....

A Courtney Series adventure - book 5 in the Burning Shore sequence.

Another great adventure story by Wilbur. Eight books into this series and I just wish there could be a bit of character variation. For example the females charachters all have "perfect breasts with rose coloured nipples that point at the moon". Just for once couldn't they have one tat bigger than the other with inverted nipples that Henry the Hoover couldn't rectify? The males are invariably "the most handsome man you have ever seen with golden hair and a stomach you can iron on". Couldn't They just for once have a bit of a beer belly and hair that stuck up at the back? They would be more relatable and we wouldn't think any less of them for it. The same descriptions for different characters get a bit samey.

Another great Courtney novel.....but!

A tale and characters that will make your skin crawl and your heart burst. Was put off from the beginning, yet like the others in the series. I could not stay away.

Dark, twisted and magnificent

As someone who has lived in South Africa for 75 years the Courtney series has brought back memories of the recent history of my country. So much of these books is based on real people and events.
Vicky Ghama is so obviously based on Winnie Mandela.

Thrilling but chilling
