About this listen

 After a failed assassination attempt on the president of Zimbabwe, ex-soldier turned mercenary Sonja Kurtz is on the run and heads for her only place of refuge, the Okavango Delta in the heart of Botswana. She’s looking to rekindle a romance with her childhood sweetheart, safari camp manager Sterling Smith, and desperately wants a fresh start and to leave her perilous warrior lifestyle behind. But Sonja discovers her beloved Delta is on the brink of destruction. She is recruited as an ‘eco commando’ in a bid to halt a project that will destroy forever the Delta’s fragile network of swamps and waterways. Soon Sonja finds herself caught in a deadly web of intrigue involving Sterling, the handsome Martin Steele – her mercenary commander, and a TV heartthrob and wildlife documentary presenter ‘Coyote’ Sam Chapman who blunders out of the bush in a reality show gone wrong. Instead of escaping her violent past, Sonja is now surrounded by men who are relying on her killer instincts to save the day. Where she came to find peace, she finds war … and it is not just the survival of the Delta that is at stake.©2010 Tony Park (P)2010 Bolinda Publishing Suspense Thriller & Suspense Africa Heartfelt

Editor reviews

Former British soldier and current hired assassin Sonja Kurtz is on the lam after her failed attempt at killing the president of Zimbabwe. She heads home to Botswana's Okavango Delta, hoping to reconnect with her childhood love Sterling and leave her work behind her. But she's soon enlisted into a plan to save her beloved Delta, and the peace she had hoped for is nowhere to be found. Tony Park creates a thrilling scenario that Mark Davis performs with masterful control. His deep voice and brilliant sense of pacing only serve to build the tension and intrigue in The Delta.

Critic reviews

'Tony Park is Australia’s premier adventure writer.' (Canberra Weekly)
'One of our best and most consistent thriller writers.' (Sydney Morning Herald)
'Break-neck in pace, with narrow escapes from death on every page, its charm is infectious.' (Daily Mail (UK))

First I've ever read of Tony Park and probably one of the best books I've ever read. Very well researched and twisting turning story line.
Quite frankly knocks the socks off Wilbur Smith and I've read all of his...

Absolutely nail biting stuff !!!
