Whispers in the Kalahari

1989, Botswana

A marriage on the edge. A death that still haunts the desert. Secrets that could destroy them all.

When the Australian pilots' dispute ruins their careers, journalist Verity White follows her pilot husband James to Botswana, hoping the Okavango Delta will give their failing marriage a second chance.

Instead, the move forces Verity to confront the tragedy that has haunted James for fifteen years: the hunting death of his brother in the Kalahari—and the secrets that have divided his family ever since.

Then Verity's daughter Saskia and her friend Angie arrive unexpectedly in the Delta while searching for Angie's father, and stumble into a dangerous world of illegal poaching and buried loyalties.

Their discovery begins to unravel the truth about that long-ago hunting trip—and draws Verity into the orbit of Starky Willis, a charismatic safari operator who may know far more than he admits.

As poachers close in and old loyalties begin to fracture, Verity must uncover what really happened in the Kalahari before the lies destroy her marriage—and cost someone she loves their life.

In the Okavango Delta, some secrets refuse to stay buried. Some are worth killing for.

A sweeping African story of love, betrayal, danger and second chances.

Drawn from the author's own experiences managing a luxury safari lodge in Botswana's Okavango Delta. Perfect for readers who enjoy Africa-set romantic suspense, historical fiction, evocative wilderness settings, family secrets, bush pilots and stories where love and danger are never far apart.
