Description: A charming rogue, American engineer Dan Courtney is learning fast that it takes more than a little charm to lay the groundwork for a railroad -- particularly in Africa. Diamond smugglers. A fearsome native tribe. A beautiful young woman... and a man determined to kill her.
Brief description: With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.
