When Anna Whitney, an American woman with a tragic past, hears the haunting cries of a mother rhino and her calf being poached while on safari in South Africa, she joins forces with Chris, a safari guide battling his own secret demons, in a desperate attempt to stop the armed and dangerous poachers. The poachers' trail leads Anna and Chris deep into the South African Bush. On a journey filled with discovery and danger, Anna and Chris encounter rogue park rangers, ferocious wild animals - including a fearsome killer lion known to locals as 'Satan' - and the destitute poacher called 'Hardlife, ' a man who will do anything to help his family survive.
Despite the foolish risks, Anna feels an irresistible urge to try and save Africa's wildlife from the war being waged on them.
In the wildness and unexpectedness of Africa she begins to find a new life calling, one that can somehow erase her heartbreaking past. Her growing love for the enigmatic Chris adds fuel to the fire of her newfound passion. She can make a fresh start in Africa, perhaps with Chris by her side . . .
if only they can make it out of the Bush alive.
