Gold mine ; and, the burning shore

North of Johannesburg, five companies share the Kitchenerville fields, furiously blasting and digging deep into the earth. For some men, gold mining is a way of life and death. For some it is just a business. For one man, it is the most dangerous game of all. Rod Ironsides drives his miners faster and harder than anyone has ever dared. A few weeks ago, Ironsides had a passion for golf and one night stands. Now, he has been handed a prize and a curse, to blast through rock and reap a fortune or be destroyed. From a split second, oxygen sucking explosion to a looming underground wall of water, there are a dozen ways Rod can fail. But his passion and fury will not let him back down from a conspiracy he cannot see: men who want to turn his mine into a death trap for the bloodiest pay day of all.

  • "Lassic adventure from bestselling novelist Wilbur Smith."Big King was at the shaft station when they heard the water coming. It sounded like an express train in a tunnel, a dull bellow of irresistible power. The water was pushing the air from the drive ahead of it, so that a hurricane of wind came roaring from the mouth of the drive, blowing out a cloud of dust and loose rubbish."Rod Ironsides, ambitious and hard-living mining expert, knows that the general managership of the Sonder Ditch gold mine is the chance of a lifetime. But the price of unquestioning obedience to the coldly obsessive genius of Dr Manfred Steyner proves impossible to pay. Both men are but unwitting tools of powerful people - for whom the control of a gold mine is only part of the realization of dreams and ambitions which include the destruction of the very mine itself..."@en
