The Octopus - A Classic Pulp Adventure Series Book 2

Andreas Du Plessis

Sinossi

A dying pilot’s last breath whispers a single, chilling word, “The Octopus”.
 
Across the Congo, the drums of war are beating a secret message. 
 
And a continent is about to burn, and only a ghost of the jungle can stop it.
 
In the treacherous heart of the Belgian Congo, Deon Rossouw, the man they call the Jungle Hawk, rules the treetops. But when he rescues a mysterious aviator shot from the sky, he uncovers a coded diary and a deadly conspiracy. A ruthless shadow organization is poisoning the land, preparing to unleash a bloody, continent-wide uprising.
 
The trail of espionage leads to The Hammer, a secret mountain fortress where a Russian mastermind commands an army in secret. When the beautiful Lena Landman is captured to be sacrificed to their twisted god, the mission becomes brutally personal. If the Hawk fails, Lena faces a fiery death, and millions will perish in a war orchestrated to bring a continent to its knees.
 
Fusing the non-stop action of a classic pulp adventure with the heart pounding tension of a Cold War thriller, this story is a must-read for fans of high stakes suspense and jungle survival. Perfect for readers who love the classic adventures of Tarzan and the modern thrills of James Rollins or Clive Cussler.
 
The drums are thundering, and a continent holds its breath. Will you answer the call? Discover The Octopus and start your adventure today!
