Gold Mine - Softcover
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...

8 1-hour cassettes
From the Back Cover:
From the sweat of lovers to the blood of warriors, Wilbur Smith delivers a compelling tale with fast-paced adventure and electrifying intrigue in this unforgettable novel...
WHEN A REALM OF TREASURE IS AT STAKE...
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's just a business. For one man, it's the most dangerous game of all...
FORTUNES ARE GAMBLED, LOVERS ARE BETRAYED...
Rod Ironsides makes love to his boss's wife and 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.
AND DEATH IS ONLY AN INSTANT AWAY...
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 won't 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...
"An epic...Smith joins the ranks of one of the grand masters of twentieth-century novels."―Tulsa World

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: As New. '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 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.
