Description
As ivory poachers are gunning down Africa’s last elephants, former SAS officer Ian MacAdam leads a commando squad against them. He pursues the poachers through jungled mountains and searing deserts, only to find they have kidnapped a young archaeologist, Rebecca Hecht, whom he once loved and bitterly lost.
He embarks on a desperate trek to save not only Rebecca but his own soul in an Africa torn apart by wars, overpopulation and the slaughter of its last wildlife.
Based on the author’s own experiences pursuing elephant poachers in the wilds of East Africa, The Last Savanna is an intense personal memoir of humanity’s ancient heartland, the beauty of its perilous deserts, jungles, and savannas, and the deep, abiding power of love.
My thoughts. I just took a trip through the last Savanna and it was one tough trip! Lions, hyenas, snakes, poachers and human predators. You’d better sleep with one eye open with this one! Looking for poachers became a hunt for a missing woman. This was a very descriptive story. The story was eye opening and just a little too descriptive in the romance scene but what hardships and how real were the life taking scenes.
I was gifted a copy from the publisher through NetGalley, my opinion and review is voluntary.
