The Leopard Sings, second in the thriller series, that involves women associated with the San Francisco law office of McCloskey, Warner & Jarvis, takes you to Kenya. It is the story of imaginative Allison and her workaholic husband Burke Warner, a partner in the law firm. In an attempt to repair their failing marriage, Burke grudgingly leaves his busy practice to accompany Allison on a safari, insisting, to her annoyance, that his duty is to protect her. Peculiar events occur on their first day in Nairobi. Strange people appear in odd places and, except for a charming young Englishman, the safari members seem a weird bunch. Soon emotional situations arise, the marriage further disintegrates and mysteries multiply, capped by two terrifying days that end in a struggle for survival.
