Tenth Man Down.

CHRIS RYAN

Publication: Century, 1999, London

First edition. Fine in dust jacket. In the south of Kamanga rebel forces have seized the diamond mines which produce the bulk of the country's wealth. Geordie Sharp and a SAS team are sent to Kamanga to help recover these lucrative assets. At the outset of the mission a witch doctor predicts that 10 whites are going to die, and immediately the prediction starts to come true. When the SAS men see that the rebels are boosted by ex-US Navy SEALs mercenaries, they begin to sense a hidden agenda. Sharp stumbles onto the secret which is drawing strong international interest, only to realize that he himself may have been exposed to a lethal dose of radiation in the process. Is he the tenth and last of the witch doctor's victims?
