Read The Burning Shore Storyline:

This first volume of the second Courtney sequence, The Burning Shore
is a marvellous epic of courage and love that moves from the blazing
skies of war torn France to the secret heart of the African wilderness.
It is the odyssey of a beautiful young woman of
aristocratic birth, Centaine de Thiry, in search of love and fortune – a
monumental journey of mystery and discovery.
Once again in The Burning Shore Wilbur Smith
proves that he is the master storyteller. Whether his subject is love or
war, whether he is describing the conflict of men and machines above
the trenches of 1917 or the onslaught of a ravenous man-eating lion, he
writes with such authority and hypnotic attention to detail that the
reader is swept away on the torrent of the narrative.
Magnificently exciting, full of vivid action, passion and mystery, The Burning Shore is certainly one of the richest and most entertaining adventure stories of our time.
