One Woman's Battle for Africa's Most Sacred Animal

In this captivating, suspenseful memoir, white lion conservationist Linda Tucker describes her perilous struggle to protect the sacred white lion from the merciless and mafia-like trophy-hunting industry.

The story begins with a heart-stopping vacation gone wrong: Tucker and her companions find themselves stranded on a dark night in the Timbavati bushveld, a pride of angry lions closing in. Miraculously, a local medicine woman appears, calming the lions and helping the group escape.

Tucker's life-threatening experience becomes a life-changing one. She abandons her career in Europe and returns to South Africa to find the mysterious medicine woman, who reveals to Tucker her sacred destiny.

Compellingly written in the intimate style of a journal, the book describes with unflinching honesty all of Tucker's hopes, fears and dreams; recounting an unforgettable tale of adventure, romance, spirituality and most of all, justice.
