From National Book Award Finalist Eliot Schrefer comes the compelling
tale of a girl who must save a group of bonobos -- and herself -- from a
violent coup. Congo is a dangerous place, even for people who are
trying to do good. When Sophie has to visit her mother at her sanctuary
for bonobos, she's not thrilled to be there. Then Otto, an infant
bonobo, comes into her life, and for the first time she feels
responsible for another creature. But peace does not last long for
Sophie and Otto. When an armed revolution breaks out in the country, the
sanctuary is attacked, and the two of them must escape unprepared into
the jungle. Caught in the crosshairs of a lethal conflict, they must
struggle to keep safe, to eat, and to live. In ENDANGERED, Eliot
Schrefer plunges us into a heart-stopping exploration of the things we
do to survive, the sacrifices we make to help others, and the tangled
geography that ties us all, human and animal, together.
