di Edgar Wallace (Autore)

Booker, 2025

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. In the depths of British West Africa, legends speak of a hidden river lined with diamonds—an elusive path through uncharted jungle that few have dared to seek. When a lone, half-mad survivor stumbles back into civilization with tales of a river glittering beneath the stars, the stage is set for an expedition where obsession, ambition, and mystery collide. Commissioner Sanders, the stern yet principled colonial officer, and Lieutenant Bones, his loyal but unconventional companion, find themselves drawn into a perilous journey through treacherous terrain, political intrigue, and psychological uncertainty. As the mission unfolds, every step deeper into the wilderness brings them closer to buried truths—not just about the land, but about themselves. The River of Stars is a masterful blend of suspense, colonial drama, and philosophical reflection, written by Edgar Wallace, one of Britain’s most prolific storytellers. With its vivid atmosphere, complex characters, and haunting moral undertones, this novel explores the fine line between civilization and savagery, order and chaos. Perfect for listeners who crave rich settings, enigmatic narratives, and stories that echo long after they end.
