Read Night of Knives Storyline:

Veronica Kelly came to Africa to start her life over. Still reeling from her divorce, she is grateful when a handsome stranger invites her to join a tour to visit gorillas in Uganda's wild Impenetrable Forest. A trip that goes desperately wrong when their group is captured by brutal gunmen. Then one tourist is executed. And then another. This is no random kidnapping: their abduction is only the first move in a deadly strategic game. A game in which Veronica's ex-husband is somehow involved. Now she must embark on a wild journey across Africa, to unveil a malignant conspiracy before it consumes entire nations - and thousands of lives...     Reviews of Night of Knives:   Evans's plots positively teem with well-drawn characters and terse, well-controlled dialogue.

But almost every aspect of the plot is more complicated than it seems ... — Sydney Morning Herald
