A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Fear stalks the corridors of power in South Africa's Houses of Parliament. An assassin is killing politicians at the top levels of government and the president is being blackmailed - but no one knows why. A tense sequel to A Dangerous Game and Dark Intent, Deadly Instinct once again throws martial arts expert James Steiner into a world of post-apartheid political intrigue and terror. In a race against time, Steiner must save the lives of innocent men and protect the balance of power in the government. But as soon as he sets foot in South Africa, a name from his past comes back to haunt him - and to claim his life. Lured into a duel to the death, will his physical strength and mental coolness, honed through his martial arts training, be enough to bring him out on top? And can he save the life of the woman he loves?
