Book Description
A jaundiced television journalist goes to Africa to cover a ceremony which is meant to mark the end of a bitter civil war. But for Ben Kendal, this is not an ordinary assignment. When he uses his contacts with the playboy son of the rebel leader to get to his armed camp in the south he encounters a young archaeologist, Calla James. And though he concludes she’s either very naïve, or very wicked, he can’t get her out of his mind. His obsession with her takes him to an ancient palace with a castration curse, through the path of a pride of lions, and sees him wrestling with a cobra. Can Kendal beat the curse and find happiness with the enigmatic Calla? The story reaches a shattering climax under the bright illumination of an African moon.
