Thanks for listening to this episode of Pagecast, brought to you by Jonathan Ball Publishers. 

Todays episode features the phenomenal Justin Fox chatting about his latest book - The Wolf Hunt.

The Wolf Hunt is the second book in the thrilling Jack Pembroke series, each of which is a stand-alone story.

In this book - Lieutenant Jack Pembroke moves from England to South Africa, where he commands an anti-submarine flotilla in Cape Town. He must quickly prepare his men for Nazi U-boats threatening the vital Cape convoy route during World War II. With Rommel's forces active in North Africa, this sea route is crucial for Allied supplies. The enemy, led by kapitan Wolfgang Brand, also carries a South African spy intent on sabotage. Jack's mission to escort a convoy to Durban while evading U-boats becomes a tense cat-and-mouse game, pushing him and his men to their limits in "The Wolf Hunt."

In this episode, Justin is in conversation with novellist and lecturer Dr Ronald Irwin.

Enjoy!
