This book is dedicated to my travel buddies who make every trip fun and exciting. Africa is on our bucket list. We hope to make it there soon. We decided a long time ago not to wait until we retired to travel. Iâm glad we made that decision. Weâve been to a lot of fun and interesting places and have so many more to visit! If I canât get to some places, I read about them and learn. Thatâs the joy of books. Happy reading!

Reese Brantley held on to the frame of the window as the Land Rover bounced wildly over the rugged terrain. âSlow down!â she shouted to the driver.
Mubanga, the Zambian guide, seemed not to hear her. More likely, he completely ignored her as he leaned to the left to look beyond the obstruction of a pair of legs dangling over the windshield from a perch on the roof of the cab. He followed the racing leopard across the ground, heading north into the rocky hills, determinedly keeping up with the beautiful creature.
Ferrence Klein, Reeseâs client, whoâd paid over one hundred thousand dollars for this hunting expedition, clung to his rifle from his position strapped to the top of the vehicle.
âHeâs not even supposed to be shooting leopards, is he? I thought there was a ban on shooting big cats? What the hell are you thinking?â Had Reese known Klein was coming to Africa to bag a leopard, sheâd have told him no way. Her understanding was that he was there on a diplomatic mission for his father, the Secretary of Defense.
She wasnât playing bodyguard to an endangered-animal killer. If they werenât traveling so fast and furious, sheâd have gotten out of the vehicle and taken her chances with the wildlife, rather than witness the murder of a magnificent creature.
