In 1897, a young woman defies the expectations of her era to chase a legend. Enola Cameron has spent years studying maps of a continent she's never seen, drawn to rumors of a civilization lost to time, mentioned only in a fragment of an ancient manuscript discovered by a hunting party in the African interior. When the document falls into her hands, she knows this is the moment to stop dreaming and start searching. Enlisting the help of her practical guardian, Mr. Graham, and his skeptical son Harry, Enola gathers her expedition in Zanzibar and pushes into the unknown. What begins as an ambitious quest becomes a test of courage, endurance, and conviction as the caravan faces wild terrain, dangerous wildlife, and the mounting terror of what lies ahead. A rattling good adventure story with an unconventional heroine who refuses to stay safely at home.
