When a group of mining executives bring their wives to the South Pacific paradise of Paui, vacation is not on their minds. Having found rare minerals on the island, they are determined to strike a swift deal for mining rights. While their husbands visit a copper mine, the women explore the beautiful coast by luxury yacht. On the return trip, the yacht breaks down and they are forced to finish the journey on foot. But as they near the hotel, their pleasure trip becomes a nightmare. The panic-stricken women tear back to the jungle, where they learn survival tricks from the ship's captain.

And only Harry, tough Australian mining executive, refuses to believe the lost women are dead and, driven by his love for one of the women, starts a search . . .

Shirley Conran certainly knows how to keep you turning pages! "Savages" is well written and shows how stranded city women can learn to survive in the jungle where savages also live....Whatever could possibly happen, happens.....I highly recommend it.
