A moving and adventure-filled tale of one woman's quest for the truth about endangered Asian elephants and their evolving relationship with humans.

Delving deep into an intricate web of unlikely heroes, power struggles, and living legends, Elephants in the Hourglass takes readers on an extraordinary journey of discovery. In her extraordinary narrative debut, Kim Frank blends personal narrative, vivid descriptions, and meticulous research as she illuminates the ways we seek to survive on our rapidly changing planet.

Like Jane Goodall or Dian Fossey before her, Kim is a female adventurer who found her life completely changed as she was drawn deeper and deeper into the plight of a remarkable animal. For Kim, once she learned about the unique plight of the elephants in North India, she was unable to rest until she had learned more.

This was a world totally unknown to her. Up until that point, she was an ordinary middle-class mom. After a fraught divorce, she felt a need to recapture her own voice, and so she set out to the Himalaya with the goal of a National Geographic story.

What Kim experienced would change her life. It is far from a black and white story where the good guys and bad guys are immediately obvious, not in this world of displaced habitats, exploding population growth and movement, and climate change which we cannot escape. Filled with unforgettable characters and encounters with one of the most sensitive, intelligent, and awe-inspiring creatures on the planet, Elephants in the Hourglass will inspire readers to pursue their goals and be a force for change in unexpected places.
