Book description
On a photography assignment in the northern territory of Mount
Marsabit, Jade hopes to film the area's colossal elephants. Instead, she
discovers the mutilated remains of four elephants and a man. Although
the authorities suspect Abyssinian poachers in search of ivory and
slaves, Jade has her own suspicions. Could it have been Harry Hascombe,
her nemesis and unremitting suitor? When the Kikuyu boy accompanying her
is captured by slave traders, she must join forces with the handsome Sam
Featherstone to rescue her guide, protect the animals, and expose one
shocking conspiracy... Suzanne Arruda, a zoo keeper turned science
teacher and writer, is the author of several biographies for young
adults. An avid hiker and gardener, Suzanne lives in Kansas with her
husband, and her cat, Wooly Bear.
