What this book is about

Anika Scott is back in East Africa for another adventure, this time facing dangers in the highland wilderness that push her both physically and spiritually. Rispin's second Anika book offers young readers vivid natural setting, genuine peril appropriate for the age group, and a protagonist whose faith is woven naturally into her character rather than imposed as a lesson. Clean, adventurous, and grounded in real African landscape.
