A scarce novel of action and adventure

"Through a series of flashbacks, interweaving three generations of Strangs, the entire history of Rhodesia from its founding to the Unilateral Declaration of Independence in 1965 is spelled out in glorious wide-screen color. And the most recurring color is blood."--Publisher's Weekly.

"Specializing in action noir, William Arthur Howard Baker got his break writing for the Sexton Blake series of detective thrillers in the mid 50's, eventually becoming an editor. He reused many of the plots from this popular set of stories for his own spy series. A pen name of his was Peter Saxon."--Goodreads.
