I liked Gruen's "Water for Elephants" so much, I decided to read this one. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it! I had a hard time putting this book down because I just had to find out what was going to happen to the intelligent, gentle Bonobo Apes who had been taken away forcibly from the Great Ape Language Lab. For Isabel Duncan, a scientist at the lab, it is like losing family and terribly heart-breaking. The race to find and save these incredible creatures from human exploitation ensues with many twists and turns.
