Elephant Mountain: True Story of Elephants, Fate, and Hidden Secrets

Elephant Mountain follows Debbie Ethell, a young woman whose fascination with an elephant skull in a bone museum draws her into a web of secrets. What begins as a curiosity about the tragic love story of Morgan Berry, the man who gave us Packy (the first baby elephant born in a U.S. zoo in forty-four years), and Eloise Berchtold, a legendary animal trainer, soon becomes a chilling mystery. Both died at the mercy of the elephants they raised, leaving behind an avalanche of hidden truths and unanswered questions.

Determined to uncover what really happened, Debbie relies on her skills as a conservation research scientist and the steadfast support of her best friend, who faces a life-threatening illness. As Debbie navigates her own recovery from alcoholism and draws strength from several wild elephants in Kenya, she discovers that the search for answers will test her courage and change her future forever.
