A time to die. / by Wilbur A. Smith - Heinemann, 1989. - 461 pages ; 17.8 cm. - The Courtney Novels 8 .

Beneath the unforgiving, blazing heat of the African sun, two men and a woman embark on a savage hunt. A hunt that will tear their safari apart, plunging them into the relentless tides of a deadly cival war. For Sean Courtney, veteran gurillia warrior and professional adventurer, it is a time to fight and a time to find a deep and passionate love. For the beautiful Claudia Monterro it is a time to face the ultimate test in a world where American values count for nothing. And for Riccardo, her father, a rich and ruthless tycoon, it is a time to confront a dangerous obsession. But in the struggles of passion and blood follow, Sean knows one thing for certain: this is a time to die, and he must battle viciously to live, to love and to triumph. -- back cover.
