Publisher's summary

Adventure, archaeology, high-tech cyber spying, and mystery mix to form a breathtaking, action-packed tale.

Why is tech billionaire Walter Falone involving Cornell archaeology professor Rob Johnson in something that appears to involve so little archaeology? The latest adventures of Professor Johnson and his protégée Abbey Summers take them to Peru, Rotterdam, Africa, London, and Australia in a new mystery thriller from author Bradford G. Wheler.

How are dead rhino poachers, grave robberies, bioengineered disease outbreaks, and stolen ancient manuscript all related? While Professor Johnson, Abbey, and their crew try to unravel a set of clues that don’t seem to make any sense, they must dodge bullets too. Someone is desperately trying to stop them - by any means necessary. Is it gangsters, eco-terrorists, corporate warfare, or something much more sinister? Is their own government trying to kill them?

This assiduously researched, fast-paced novel brings archaeology, bioengineering, and cyber espionage to life against an international backdrop of five continents. Listeners will meet a fascinating cast of characters on the trail of the elusive international criminal killers.

Mixing the action of David Baldacci’s The Hit, the tech thrills of Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park, and the dialogue of Robert B. Parker’s Spenser novels, The Zulu Curse is a true pleasure to listen to.

Very Good Book

The book did keep my interest. I think it was well written. The characters were vivid in my mind and the storyline was consistent. I would recommend both the book and the author.

A Great Read

The story line was fast paced while holding my interest with great character development. The writing style is very realistic as if you are listening to the characters first hand. The author has done a very nice job with this as a great story teller with the some of the same characters from his previous novels. This one is my favorite so far and I'm looking forward to his next one!

Good Narration & Story

A tenure professor Rob, has more question then answers. The billionaire has arranged everything to even someone staying at his ranch. With Abby they head to Peru, Africa, and other countries. People are set on stopping them, it includes bio chemical, espionage, an adventure for us as listeners and readers, I enjoyed this one the most, the Intrigue started at the beginning, and you too wonder what the billionaire wanted answers for, Given ARC audio, of which was great for my voluntary review and honest
opinion

The Zulu Curse

The story is a little faster paced than the previous episodes, but the details are all correct, and the story is as believable as any great fiction can be. This book can stand on its own, but this series deserves a reader to start from the first book, you will enjoy the journey.

Packed With Excitment and Suspense

This book has excitement and suspense on every page. The descriptions are very complete and create great mental images of every location. The characters are realistic and interesting. I just wish the book was longer.
