famous "solo" novels — "The Eye of the Tiger" and "Don't Wake the Devil" in new translations. Harry Fletcher decides to put an end to his criminal past ("The Eye of the Tiger"). He settles on an island off the coast of South Africa and now honestly — well, almost always honestly — makes a living organizing fishing trips for tourists. But one day tough guys appear on his boat, and they are not interested in fish at all — they are looking for the sunken treasure of ancient Indian kings: a golden throne in the shape of a tiger, inlaid with a priceless diamond. Soon Harry realizes what a dangerous adventure he has gotten himself into, as if the search proves successful, any unnecessary witnesses will be simply eliminated... Fate brought them together in Zanzibar, and from that moment on, the old rogue Flynn and the naive Sebastian began poaching in the territories of German colonies in Africa ("Don't Wake the Devil"). Considering themselves invulnerable, they commit a robbery of the residence of the Kaiser's governor. Who could have thought that after this, the gates of hell would open for them and nothing in their lives would ever be the same?..
