As the dining room table comes crashing to the floor, I realize: The knife is on the counter. How long do I have before he realizes it, too? Melting Ivory is the gripping, inspirational true story of an American girl who went to Ivory Coast on a Fulbright Scholarship and got an education she could never have hoped to prepare for; one that would get her shot at in a coup d'etat, and land her in a clandestine romance that would turn out to be far more dangerous still. In real life, saviors can transform into persecutors, and strangers into heroes. You just never know, at the start of a journey, where it may take you by the end. "Rarely is a story so well-written, compelling and vivid that it transports you in time and place.

I've never before read a memoir I literally could not put down. It's beautifully and vividly written, even the awful and ugly parts." - M. Tucker Ready for the ride of a lifetime?
