Two women - feisty anthropologist Charlotte Manning and beautiful, mysterious Kazlana Ramanova - rekindle his interest in the world. On a journey to the Serengeti, they each discover that there is more to fear than just the wildlife ...Frank Coates's compelling novel is at once a thrilling adventure and a poignant exploration of grief, family and identity, set against the upheavals of twenty-first century Kenya.
