5.0 out of 5 stars A fabulous story in exotic Kenya. Romance and adventure., December 14, 2002

This review is from: Endangered (Portraits Series #4) (Paperback)

This book I definitely recommend. "Endangered" has romance, adventure, endangered wildlife, the culture of the people living there (Maasai) and a terrific well-developed plot for only 250 pages. Sable Dunsmoor comes back to Kenya from Canada to help her sister Kate to build wells for the people living there and to her father who is a wildlife preserve warden. Her money for the project is missing. She also comes upon a group of suspected poachers and finds that her old flame Kash Hallet is the boss of the outfit. Kash Hallet was in love with her before she went to Canada with her mother who was dying from cancer. She is also whirling with questions of Kash's innocence from poaching: before he had cared about the animals as she had. Is he out for money? Kash is also determined to renew their romance and to win her trust away from her finacee Dr.Vince Adler. Whom should Sable trust? Will she also get to her father in time? A great story about the depleting population of exotic animals and adminstrating God's word to a troubled East African country. Definitely read this if you like romance, adventure, love for God and his people. I will read it more than once!

ENDANGERED by Linda Chaikin is about Sable Dunsmoor and the adventurous, safari guide, Kash Hallet. Sable has returnd to Kenya, East Africa, to be reunited with her widowed father, Skylar Dunsmoor. She is shocked to find herself reunited with the likes of Kash Hallet. Sable is disappointed in him, because she thinks he has cashed in his ideals for the love of money. This is another excellent book by Linda Chaikin, I recommend it.
