I have read both The Chateau and The Main Character, so when the opportunity arose to read her newest book The Safari, I knew I had to get my hands on it. Jaclyn Goldis captures the beauty, majesty, and danger of the South African wilderness with breathtaking precision. From the rustle of dry grass to the pulse of looming threats, The Safari pulls you deep into its lush, beautiful and dangerous world. The author includes details specific to the area that include their language, culture, values and traditions that authenticates this story pulling the reader deeply into this pulse pounding mystery.
Rich people behaving badly, multiple POV’s, tangled family rifts that span decades, secrets layered like a game of chess, and a cast of unreliable characters you won’t know whether to trust or suspect are exactly what you get when reading The Safari. Jacklyn is superb in her pacing and the ability to leave red herrings and/or subtle clues that you think may be inconsequential but - hang on – when you get to the end it will all come together in a way that will have you furiously flipping pages to get to the truth of what lies among the family members. If you’re craving a thriller that stands out with a jaw-dropping setting and nonstop suspense—this is the one you’ve been waiting for.
