Gary Stratford is a rancher with no yearning for bright lights. He calls himself a Bushman and manages a ranch near the Kruger Park Region in South Africa. He becomes embroiled in the hunting down of rhino horn and ivory poachers and teams up with like-minded neighbours to fight this scourge. His wife leaves him for the city and now again a bachelor develops a relationship with a newlywed whose husband proves to be a most undesirable and despicable man on a game tour to South Africa. A fascinating story unfolds with much fast-paced action and intrigue. A truly super interesting read, most enjoyable and entertaining! Simply could not put it down.

Editor’s comment About the author : The author is a Rhodesian born ex tobacco trader who settled in South Africa to seek a new environment, and after setting up a business in 1990 he has now sold out and retired. He is hoping that writing will become his hobby. He claims it is far too early to put his feet up and put his mind to rest. This second novel will perhaps prove he has the talent to become a successful author. His first attempt A Measure of Grim Delight was never- or has not yet been marketed although it was well received by those chosen few who read it.
