The action-packed and gripping new adventure by number one bestselling author,Wilbur Smith,about one man's quest for revenge.
'The right of the cat over the mouse,of the strong over the weak.The natural law of existence.' Mungo St John,'A Falcon Flies.'
The son of a wealthy plantation owner and a doting mother,Mungo St John is accustomed to the wealth and luxuries his privilege has afforded him.That is until he returns from university to discover his family ruined,his inheritance stolen and his childhood sweetheart,Camilla, taken by the conniving Chester Marion.Fuelled by anger,and love,Mungo swears vengeance and devotes his life to saving Camilla - and destroying Chester.
Camilla,trapped in New Orleans,powerless to her position as a kept slave and suffering at the hands of Chester's brutish behaviour,must learn to do whatever it takes to survive.
As Mungo battles his own fate and misfortune to achieve the revenge that drives him,and regain his power in the world,he must question what it takes for a man to survive when he has nothing, and what he is willing to do in order to get what he wants.
