With a cast of characters as wild, wondrous and unpredictable as Africa itself, WILDFLOWER is a real-life adventure tale set in the world's fast-disappearing wilderness. Full of personal revelation, intrigue, corruption and murder, readers will remember Joan Root's extraordinary journey long after they turn the last page.
