About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.


An astonishing discovery is made in the remote African republic of Zangaro, one which could change the course of a nation's history forever. But such a discovery cannot be kept secret for long and Sir James Manson will stop at nothing to protect this find. A ruthless and bloody-minded tycoon, Manson immediately hires an army of mercenaries and with this deadly crew behind him he sets out to topple the government and replace its dictator with a puppet president.

But news of the discovery has reached Russia - and suddenly Manson finds he no longer makes the rules in this power game. A game in which win or lose means life or death.

In this masterful thriller of international intrigue, Frederick Forsyth delivers a tense, brutal and always believable tale that will satisfy die-hard fans and newcomers alike.

Critic Reviews

Audacious and authoritative
What keeps you reading - absorbed, excited, fearfully tense - is its details of the plotting of the coup
Enormous and convincing detail, and a shattering climax
All stars

Excellent audio book. Extremely well read by David Rintoul. Strong story with David’s impressive reading is a great satisfaction. I have read all Frederic Forsyth’s bools including this one. I found audible book was more enjoyable

It was good experience to listen to this audiobook. The speaker is good but the problem is that sound gets too low in certain parts due to the narration - you miss out on things

Great book with great story
