about the book

Africa in my Heart encompasses tragedy, bereavements and recovery as well as protection for the environment and endangered species. It is a murder mystery but at its heart are two love stories: love of a place and romantic love. Beginning with a horrific tragedy, Jessica’s story unfolds against a background of the fight against poaching and her search for her own identity and place in the world. As a result of trying to track down the murderers, Jessica becomes involved with anti-poaching organisations. She and Lawrence become especially involved when they hear there is to be a raid on their friends’ safari park. They go on a mission to save the elephants and rhinos together with the police and anti-poaching organisations. Even as they draw closer together Jessica and Lawrence find themselves in great danger. Can they learn the truth about the murders and save the rhinos and elephants from poachers? How do they themselves escape from mortal danger?
