  Craig Dalton - a successful English vet, pilot, accomplished polo player, inveterate womaniser - enjoys an enviable lifestyle in Africa. When he falls in love with a beautiful American girl on safari, his world seems complete. But everything disintegrates when Craig's past re-emerges to haunt him. Distraught, he returns to England where a serial killer, known as the 'Bristol Beast', is strangling young prostitutes. There, damning forensic and circumstantial evidence makes him the prime suspect. Yet this exciting story begins in Rhodesia and ends in today's Zimbabwe, with a brutalised girl playing a pivotal role in Craig's life. Seemingly unconnected events entwine into a complex story involving rejected lovers, obsessed policemen, teenage prostitutes, a brilliant barrister, an American philanthropist and a journalist with a sinister past. This gripping saga of love, hatred, injustice and revenge is set in Africa, America, Belgium and England, places the author knows well.
