A modern-day Heart of Darkness.' SARAH SULTOON, AUTHOR OF THE SOURCE, THE SHOT AND DIRT

'Dive into one of the most dangerous and forbidding places on the planet: the jungles of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Two naïve journalists join an expedition to find the last northern white rhino in the wild - through territory being fought over by rival terrorist groups that don’t care how many people they kill. And the rain? Don’t forget the rain. They’ve never seen anything like it.' MICHAEL STANLEY, AUTHOR OF THE DETECTIVE KUBU SERIES

'The hunters become the hunted in this slick, atmospheric, eco-thriller. Antony Dunford's writing transported me deep into the heart of Africa and I didn't want to leave. In Jane Haven, Antony has created a hero for the ages and I can't wait to read the next instalment in her quest.' MARK WIGHTMAN, AUTHOR OF WAKING THE TIGER

'Born The Same places you in the heart of Africa in a smart, engaging thriller with a cast of interesting characters who come alive on the page, & a visceral sense of place.' JACK LEAVERS, AUTHOR OF APPETITE FOR RISK

By 2022 Crime Writers' Assocation John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger longlisted author, Antony Dunford.

Colm Reid, a disillusioned Irish journalist, is invited by Norwegian conservationist Kennet Haven to cover a story in the remote Garamba National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Colm joins Kennet, Kennet’s sister Jane, Belgian journalist Fatou Ba, and the rangers of Garamba on an expedition into the park to look for the last surviving wild northern white rhinos on the planet.

Kennet neglected to mention one thing: the park is in the middle of a war zone.
