When Biff Brewster's uncle, a member of the
United States Diplomatic Service in Tanganyika, suggests that his nephew join him on an African safari, adventure-loving Biff
accepts without a moment's hesitation.
But what starts out as a hunting safari ends up as a dangerous mission for Interpol, the International Police Criminal Organization, to round up a ruthless ring of ivory smugglers who have left a trail of wantonly murdered elephants across the African veldt. Biff Brewster is no stranger to adventure, but Africa presents him with a lifetime supply of excitement and thrilling experiences. Stampeding zebras, dog-faced baboons, fleet-footed cheetahs, wild dogs, and death dealing cobras challenge man's right to invade their primitive domain. Biff's friend Monda, the native boy, proves himself master of the plains when he saves Biff from an enraged water buffalo. Yet it is Monda himself who leads Biff to wonder if anyone is to be trusted on this strange safari into danger. More than once, Biff and his uncle come close to losing their lives to their vicious opponents––both animal and human––but in the end Biff, risking his life, finds the missing piece to the intricate jigsaw puzzle of suspense and intrigue when he unmasks a most surprising host of master criminals. African Ivory Mystery is the fifth volume in the most action-packed adventure series for boys on the market today.
