Really enjoyed this one as it was refreshingly free of hunting. It also had quite a parallel with Assegai with regards to a cargo being "shipped" and hunted. The uniting of two families in different countries, did seem rather far fetched to be honest, but nevertheless it was still a really enjoyable read.

Content warning Spoilers ahead!
Quite a ride this one was. Real happiness at the beginning which turned to a lot if tradegy. Such a contrast too between the crowded war zone and the later utter desolation of the veld. It was almost like two different stories. It was just rather sad at the end about the sacrilege of the sacred place... The reasoning to me was false.

Really enjoyed this story. Rather a lot of hunting, but it is central to this story. Love the way the tension was cranked up right at the end.
