Abbey sets to work with a charity planting trees in the immense Chobe National Park. It soon becomes very clear, however, that life will never be predictable again Love, hate and prejudice exist side by side in the small, rural community, where at last, Abbey has to use her wits to survive. An entertaining light read which will transport you to the dusty, hot bushlands of northern Botswana and introduce you to the variety of characters who have made it their home. The Perils of Skinny-dipping is a story about love, cultural differences and human nature in a stunning and unique environment.
