Riassunto

After a failed assassination attempt on the president of Zimbabwe, ex-soldier turned mercenary Sonja Kurtz is on the run. She heads for her only place of refuge, the Okavango Delta in the heart of Botswana. She's keen to forget her warrior lifestyle - it's time for an easy life. But then Sonja discovers that the Delta is on the brink of destruction. She is recruited as an 'eco-commando' in a bid to halt a project that would destroy the Delta's fragile network of swamps and waterways. Soon she finds herself caught in a deadly web of intrigue involving her ex-lover 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.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Namibian-born, SAS trained, British soldier-turned-mercenary Sonja Kurtz has been hired to assassinate the President of Zimbabwe. The attempt fails and, running for her life, Sonja takes refuge in the drought-threatened Okavango Delta. Sonja finds the Delta on the brink of destruction and is recruited to destroy the dam-building project, which is threatening the Delta's existence. With Major Kenneth Sibanda, the brutal head of Zimbabwe's secret police, on her trail, Sonja soon finds herself caught in a deadly web of intrigue, where a single mistake will spell certain death. Where she came to find peace, she finds war ... and it is not just the survival of the Delta that is at stake.
