Martin Fine thought he'd left Africa behind, along with his nightmares.
Eighteen months after a diamond smuggling operation ended in bloodshed and betrayal on a beach in Lamu, Martin is adrift in New York, drowning his guilt in tequila. Then Major Ian Smythe-Jones appears at his door with an offer: a chance to even the score with CIA Agent Steve Russell, the man responsible for killing the woman Martin loved.
The bait? Rumors that Russell has gone rogue, planning to smuggle uranium from Zaire into Gaddafi's Libya. The setting? Kinshasa during the legendary Rumble in the Jungle, as Muhammad Ali prepares to face George Foreman in the fight of the century.
What begins as a straightforward revenge mission spirals into a deadly maze of double-crosses and shifting allegiances. With Mobutu's secret police, Cuban mercenaries, Libyan agents, and a mercenary nuclear scientist all converging on the same prize, Martin finds himself once again playing a game where the rules change by the hour, and where falling for the wrong woman could prove fatal.
In Africa, the line between hunter and hunted is never clear. And this time, Martin ends up being both.
