Description
Saul Eldershaw, a freelance photographer, travels to Southern Africa to secure a series of farms. The farmland, once returned to nature, will link two established National Parks. The corridor will reinstate the migratory routes of the wild animals and provide as a catalyst for the rewilding of the area. There, in the wilderness, Saul obsesses over the establishment of the Transfrontier Park and what is required to create the reserve.
Saul’s quest spans three continents. He journeys from the glaciers of Alaska, the seas of Port Jackson, to the expanses of the National Parks of Southern Africa. To achieve his mission, he will need to learn who he can trust. He must challenge the narrative, examine the reality portrayed in his photographs, and question his own memories. Is the world simply repeating patterns of light and shadows enfolding on itself, or can Saul bring genuine change?

This was a great read. I loved how different and unique this story actually was. It felt so much like a was reading a Memoir. It just felt so good and relaxed book that flowed so well. I love fiction books that incorporate the outdoors and nature into a very thrilling read. This book certainly had me engrossed. It was thrilling and exciting story with some shocking moments. Where my jaw just hit the floor. I even found myself speaking nooo out loud. Good job I was on my own but I did make the dog jump. I loved how this story was based across 3 continents. Australia, Africa and America. I thought the story was well wrote and engaging with a nice medium pace. I like the characters and they developed well. I loved that the characters actions shocked me and made me change my mind about what I thought about them. I think this book would of been better without the detailed bedroom antics. It's not often I cringe. The story held a great sense of atmosphere and tension.
If you are looking for an exciting read about African national parks then look no further. There is plenty of twist and turns to enjoy.
Many thanks to the author and publishers for creating this exciting story that almost felt like real life.
