  A totally gripping thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat 
   
   
   
  Max Donovan, a man who uses his knowledge of far-flung corners of the earth and a fair bit of muscle to "fix things," is relaxing by the sea in Senegal. 
   
   
   
  But his much-needed holiday after a botched operation in Malaysia, where he broke more than he fixed, is abruptly interrupted when a man is knifed on the beach. 
   
   
   
  When Donovan makes chase, the killer steals his car. Not a wise move. Donovan is now motivated to hunt him down. His curiosity has got the better of him, anyway. 
   
   
   
  His adversary is a hitman who has traveled to Senegal to fix a few things of his own. No stranger to danger, he is closing in for another kill. 
   
   
   
  The thrilling game of cat-and-mouse that ensues leaves the busy markets and bars of Dakar and heads into tropical forests and arid savannah, where poachers, smugglers, crocs, and lions, are all waiting to pounce. 
   
   
   
  Will Donovan get his man or has he met his match?

  Ivan Bunin received the 1933 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the strict artistry with which he has carried on the classical Russian traditions in prose writing." Aristocrat to the core, Bunin somehow remained connected to the land and people and keenly felt their pulse of life. His acute observations resulted in the accurate and unforgettable characters who populated his writing. His love for punctuation and punctilious choice of words is legendary. Reading Bunin's stories is one of the best ways to understand the mysterious Russian soul and begin to understand one of Russia's greatest periods of literature.
