Acerca de esta escucha
Before her suspicious death, Rigby Croxford's wife, Helen, fingered an African politician as the head of an international wildlife poaching syndicate. Plans to avenge Helen's death are put on hold when an ex-lover from Rigby's past reenters his life. The woman's daughter has disappeared in Africa. She enlists Rigby's help, but her agenda is not what it seems to be. Their adventure across the African frontier puts them at odds with an unforgiving wilderness and a barbaric despot.

James Gardner weaves both the brutality and the compassion of modern Africa into his thriller, The Lion Killer. His protagonist, Rhodesian war hero Rigby Croxford, is hired by the unscrupulous American litigator Max Turner to rescue his son from Congolese rebels after a peaceful safari to see the mountain gorillas turns into a bloodbath of rape and murder. Croxford is apprehensive about Max’s hidden agenda, but it’s too late to back out. The adventure has more twists than the Zambezi River with danger at every bend.

"If Robert Littell didn't invent the American spy novel," says Tom Clancy, "he should have." In this spectacular Cold-War-as-Alice-in-Wonderland epic, Littell, "the American le Carre," takes us down the rabbit hole and into the labyrinthine world of espionage that has been the CIA for the last half-century. "Ostensibly a single novel, The Company can also be listened to as an anthology of cracking good spy stories," says ( Publishers Weekly).

Former Super Bowl MVP quarterback Zach Bridger hasn’t seen his ex-wife, Rebecca Pratt, for some time—not since their volatile marriage imploded—so he’s shocked to receive a life-altering call about her. Rebecca has been placed on life support after a violent assault, and he—despite their divorce—has medical power-of-attorney. Zach is asked to make an impossible choice: keep her on life support or take her off of it. Buckling under the weight of the responsibility and the glare of public scrutiny, Zach ultimately walks away, letting Rebecca's parents have the final say.
