With Tooth and Nail: Thrilling action and suspense(2 The Max Donovan Adventures)

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 travelled 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? WITH TOOTH AND NAIL is the second standalone thriller in the Max Donovan adventures series. Look out for the first book, ONE BEATS THE BUSH, and the third, THE SERPENT'S LAIR.
