One Sunday she spots an advertisement for a charity looking for volunteers to work on an ecological project in southern Africa, and impulsively applies. Abbey arrives in Kasane, Botswana. As she settles into her new life in the African bush, she encounters a poisonous snake, has a brush with black magic and also has to contend with Anna, a stunning South African who is determined to rekindle a relationship with Darren, Abbey’s new husband. The Perils of Skinny-dipping is a story about love, cultural differences and human nature in a stunning and unique environment.
