Book excerpt: The saga of the legendary Courtney family continues in this fourteenth installment in Wilbur Smith’s bestselling series—the sequel to 2009’s Assegai—a thrilling tale of espionage, adventure, and danger, set in Africa and spanning from the Great War’s end to the dark days of World War II. As a member of the remarkable Courtney family, Leon Courtney knows how quickly fortunes can be won and lost. Over the course of more than two centuries, generations of his family have risen and fallen with the tides of history. Leon, too, has experienced his own share of triumph and pain. In the wake of his beloved wife’s death, the renowned big-game hunter is raising his young daughter, Saffron, alone in colonial Kenya. In the 1920s, the continent of Africa is a dangerous place. As Leon attempts to navigate the murky political waters of this most exquisitely beautiful and wildest of lands, his daughter grows into an independent and headstrong young woman bound for a far different life in Britain, as a student at Oxford. But over the course of more than two decades, spies, traitors, and adventurers will dog their every step. As the fitful years of peace lead to the outbreak of the Second World War—involving Africa once more—Leon and Saffron must fight for their survival . . . and that of their illustrious family. Wilbur Smith masterfully captures the tensions that will spark a war across continents—and the uncertainty and hopes of a father and daughter caught in its grips—in this engrossing novel that delivers the fast-paced action and vivid history that have made him a living legend.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1918 edition. Excerpt: ...One will remember the perfect setting in the valley of vineyards, and the panoramic glories of the guardian mountains, their peaks showing clear and defined through vague and fleecy wreaths of morning mist. There will be memories of the Indian bazaar, the sharp ejaculatory cries in Hindustani tongues, the babble of the syces, the cooks, the bhisties, and the sweepers, and at all times the faint sickly smell of the burning ghee. Outlasting all will be the link it represents in the quick-moving chain of British strength beyond the seas, the part it played in aiding the capture of Jerusalem and the stemming of the Austro-German hosts on the plains of Northern Italy. Now let us return again to the North. A base remount depot, which we will call " A," has, of course, easy access from the sea. From the spot where it is situated you look towards an historical city, through which a river famous in commerce, romance and tragedy, passes out on its ever-widening passage to the sea. You contemplate that vista of ancient monuments mingling with the tall chimneys of modern industry, and your imagination flits centuries back to the distant ages when the Norsemen came, when English and French fought as fierce opponents, asking and giving no quarter, and when treachery, bloodshed, and swaying battles were part of the unhappy lives of each succeeding generation. Odd contrasts indeed! This depot may be said to have had its origin half in York and half in Waterford, the divided forces becoming united at their first French base on August 19, 1914. They were there only a fortnight, and then at a time when the Germans were seriously threatening the northern coast of France they were hurriedly shipped and put out to sea. For three days they were...
