The White Bone

The White Bone is a thrilling journey into the minds of African elephants as they struggle to survive in a land racked by drought and slaughter. The story is told by a young cow named Mud, who at the novel's opening has survived an attack on her family by ivory poachers. She finds herself at the center of a desperate quest for the White Bone: an object of mythic power that if found might lead the herd to safety and survival.
