Description
Africa, Kyananza Reserve
Acting-Warden for the Kyananza Reserve in a remote part of Africa, John “Rufus” Richards is in charge of protecting the game that roams the area.
Poaching is a serious problem - species are on the brink of extinction and terrorists are now encroaching on his region.
Security Forces successfully disband a large terrorist group; however, Richards is soon notified that some survivors could soon be crossing back into his Reserve.
Two hunting parties are also residing in the area. One of which is led by the Johannesburg VIP, Roddy Fisk and his stepson Nicholas Shane.
The second party consists of U.S. citizens, including a journalist researching for her next article.
In the African hills, Scottish prospector, Rhuda McGann is painstakingly searching the area for precious metals worthy of mining.
As the paths of all these groups collide, a brutal murder ensues.
Richards must quickly investigate before the forecasted storms destroy any remaining evidence.
But can that evidence even be trusted?
All signs lead to an attack by a surviving terrorist.
But Richards is concerned by minor discrepancies in several of the statements given.
Are they purely coincidences?
Or is there someone in his midst trying to cover up their crime?
The real question is can Richards unveil the truth before the groups disperse back to their native countries, or indeed, before the killer strikes again?
Towards the Tamarind Trees is a gripping crime novel with a surprising twist.
Praise for Antony Trew
'A gripping read.' - Robert Foster, bestselling author of The Lunar Code.
Antony Trew (1906 - 1996) had three careers: sailor, business executive, writer. The first was the sea. Returning to it during World War II he served with the South African and Royal Navies in the South Atlantic, the Mediterranean and the Western Approaches where he commanded the escort destroyer HMS Walker, principally employed on Russian convoys. He was awarded the DSC.
After the war he resumed his work with the Automobile Association of South Africa of which he was Director General and in his spare time wrote Two Hours to Darkness; published by Collins in 1963 it was an immediate bestseller — over 3,500,000 copies printed in 16 languages. On the strength of it he retired early and embarked on a third and highly successful career as a writer.
