Sabu "Elephant Boy" #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeSabu, the Elephant Boy, embarks on a safari adventure with explorer Martin Blackson and a girl named Nella, but two thieves steal the expedition's jewels and flee into the jungle. When a leopard attacks the girl during their pursuit, Sabu drives the beast away and rescues her. The thieves are captured in a pit trap, and Sabu prepares for a celebratory hunt in the village of Zaru, planning to use a lion's skin and zebra to lure and capture the animals for the feast while foiling the villainous Zaru's scheme to seize power through drugging the tribal noose used in the hunt.
Martin Buckson is a smooth-talking big-game hunter who dazzles lecture halls with tales of jungle adventure—except he's never actually been to Africa. When a captivated young woman named Nella persuades him to prove his mettle on a real safari, Buckson finds himself face-to-face with the very dangers he's spent years fabricating, and the jungle has little patience for phonies. As his carefully constructed lies begin to unravel in the African wilderness, Buckson discovers that tall tales and real survival are two very different things.
When cries of distress lead Sabu to rescue a girl and her father from fierce cliff monkeys, he discovers they've been accused of stealing from the Lanori tribe's jewel room—a theft they claim is a frame-up. As Sabu works to prove their innocence and protect them from the tribe's wrath, he becomes entangled in a web of betrayal and hidden motives surrounding the mystery of the Lanori jewel room, where nothing is quite what it seems.
