Product Description

Product Description

She felt Ramón come awake and spring from the bed, naked and lithe as a jungle cat. She heard the metallic snicker of a firearm as he snatched the pistol from the holster. In the darkness a yellow flower of gun-flamed bloomed, and a single bullet whiplashed across twenty yards of open ground. . .

In the searing heat of a divided Africa two decades of bitter dynastic conflict explode with terrifying ferocity. To Gary and Sean Courtney it is a struggle to the end; brother pitted against brother as they are dragged unwittingly into the lair of an international terrorist.

Only Isabella Courtney stands between them and the mutual destruction they have willed for so long. Beautiful, headstrong Isabella; the link to 'Golden Fox' - a man whose alias hides a sinister and deadly secret...

Traversing a vast panorama, from the heart of London society to the grandeur of Spain, from parched Ethiopia to war-torn Angola and on to the blazing hunting grounds of South Africa and Zimbabwe, Golden Fox is masterful storytelling from the arena of war; an adventure of stirring, irresistible intensity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another gem from Wilbur Smith!, 27 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Golden Fox (Paperback)
Once again the Courtney family, their lives and adventures, keep you gripped from page one. In this book Isabella Courtney takes centre stage and we follow her from London to Spain and, of course, back home to Africa. She falls in love with a handsome foreigner- but who is this man really? What are his true intentions? She is trapped in the lair of the 'Golden Fox'. The book follows her life in Africa as she undergoes emotional torture and blackmail which only her strength of character and determination allow her to endure. She is torn between family love and loyalty, and loyalty to her country. Her brothers become embroiled in the troubles and are set one against the other. Will the Courtney family survive this unseen enemy? A book with something for everyone - adventure, love, the world of spies and revolution, and the beauty of Africa. You will turn each page in eager anticipation - what will happen next?!

4.0 out of 5 stars A vivid tale of intrigue and adventure in 1970's Africa, 26 Feb 2007
This review is from: Golden Fox (Hardcover)
A thoroughly enjoyable book. Starting at a Rolling Stones concert in London's Hyde Park and ending with the potential slaughter of innocents in South Africa this book paints an intriguing picture of third party interference in Africa in the 1970's. Part of the Courtney series, this one focuses on Isabella although her three brothers and other prominent members of the family feature heavily, not least because Isabella's action as the result of her relationship with a mysterious foreigner set brother against brother. Well thought through and written, the book keeps you engaged from start to finish and makes you wonder whether such events really could and did happen. The deep sea fishing section I found particularly engaging and a tribute to Wilbur Smith's descriptive abilities.

3.0 out of 5 stars Let down ending, 8 Aug 2007
By D. A. Clewes - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Golden Fox (Paperback)
I love Wilbur Smith books, having read most of them. But this one I found a bit of a let down at the end. He's very descriptive in most things, which we all love, especially the wilderness of Africa. But the ending to this story was a let down, almost as if the editor told him he had to finish it in 3 pages flat. I would have liked to read about when Nicky got back together with the family, how Isabel is doing now after all the treachery she did, etc., etc.. Although I've kept some of his other books to read again at some later stage, this one I will definately not read again.
