From the author of Still Life with Elephant comes the
story of one woman and her quest to save a majestic animal. After a year spent caring for baby elephants in Africa,
Neelie Sterling is preparing to return to the States and a
life filled with exes—ex-boyfriend, ex-husband, ex-house,
ex-horse. But she is leaving behind some unfinished business
in Zimbabwe: a very special elephant targeted for execution.
With the help of her new friend Diamond-Rose Tremaine, an
eccentric safari operator, Neelie manages to buy some time
for the imperiled pachyderm, knowing that when she lands in
New York they'll need to raise funds for his rescue. Once they're home, everything becomes a struggle. Neelie and
Diamond-Rose now must relearn how to survive in an urban
jungle of table manners and real beds while coping with the
overbearing affections of Neelie's family. Harder still,
Neelie desperately needs the help of her wealthy
conservationist ex-boyfriend, Tom, to save the magnificent
creature—and swallowing her pride just might be the biggest
challenge of all.
