Shadows in the Desert (Paperback)


"Through the darkness they came, five hunters - five experienced killers. Creatures of the night, they had cold yellow eyes that were designed to see in the darkness almost as well as in the daylight. Hungry from the lack of game around the cattle post, they were spurred on by the smell of food that was strong now as they got closer. All the adults of the pride were there, including the one large male that trailed at a distance." It had been five years since a bloody civil war forced Peter McKinley out of Mozambique to the cold plains of Montana, but the longing to return home to Africa never diminished. When an opportunity arose to take over a hunting concession in the Kalahari Desert, Peter jumped at the chance. Taking his beautiful young wife and three year-old daughter with him, the young adventurer risked it all and moved to the lonely Botswana wilderness. There Peter planned to pick up his old life again, but not everything would go as planned for the young family. An enemy from his past waited for them in the desert, an enemy that Peter thought was long dead. Like a deadly venomous snake stalking its prey it moved in unaware, edging closer until it was in range for the strike.
