Somewhere up the bush road from Alebi lies the River of Stars, a stream bed glittering with diamonds that an earlier expedition never returned from. In London the swindler Lambaire needs the chart to it, and the only man who can help is Amber, an insolent and resourceful convict, whose adventures lead from prison and Scotland Yard back to the African forest.
An early Wallace thriller that mixes London crime with the West Africa of his Sanders stories, with the colonial attitudes of 1913. Download the free EPUB.
