Book synopsis

Many love Africa and the romance that its wilderness represents, but the stark reality of rhino poaching and the impact it has is vividly played off against the struggle to survive this cruel continent in the crime novel Rhino Blood. In current day Africa, Dean Davidson is the mastermind behind a syndicate that thrives on the slaughter of animals for their horns or tusks. Kevin Barkley, caught with his hand in the cookie jar, needs to redeem himself. He swears revenge and intends to get it. This realistic and stirring story is the start of a journey into the darkest secrets of animal trading and the near extinction of a species. It depicts the brutal reality of poaching and the people involved. Says the author, "The brutality with which rhino and elephant are killed and the tragic circumstances of the people involved was a major inspiration. One of the biggest obstacles I had to face was the emotional involvement in the story. The killing scenes were all very upsetting, and as an animal lover and a person who has never hunted, the reality of what I experienced was just mind blowing." Dawie Botha grew up on the East Rand when gold mining in that area of South Africa came to a halt. After two years at the then Rand Afrikaans University, he worked all over the Free State and Limpopo. "The general feeling toward poaching and especially rhino poaching is very strong in an area where we have lost already so many rhino. Some of what I wrote is based on fact and some of it is fiction, but the ultimate extinction of rhino and elephant is a stark reality." Publisher's website: http://sbprabooks.com/DawieBotha
