About this listen
1990. Lenka Brett - a smart but unworldly young, Irish teacher - volunteers to deliver aid when the world learns of the horrifying plight of children in Romanian orphanages.
An English naval officer, Captain Simon Syrianus, volunteers to be her co-driver. Together, they join a convoy of humanitarian aid drivers known as the Rogues, the last hope for those in areas where official charities cannot enter.
Lenka falls in love, but when the Rogues become the target mercenaries, tragedy follows, and she discovers her lover is not who he appeared to be.
©2015 John Righten (P)2022 Spectrum AudiobooksThe characters are one of the main attractions and the author has excelled in describing their personalities and flaws.
The story gradually builds up to an intriguing end of this first chapter, with humour and an attention to detail always present.
I will definitely be buying the next chapter.

This review is of the Audio reading.
Firstly the story itself. Righten's writing is welcoming. Set in the early 1990s it focuses on Lenka delivering medical aid to war torn european areas such as Bosnia. Written with humour and menace. 7/10.
