Some cases, you solve. Some cases, you survive. Naval Criminal Investigative Service Special Agent, Tyrone Benhoff is in purgatory. That's what agents call it when they find themselves on the wrong side of command and are transferred to a place like Djibouti, Africa. He tried to open a case in Virginia that was too close to the wrong people. Now he's being watched for even the slightest screw-up so his enemies at headquarters can drive him out of the agency. When a sailor on leave from Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti, is killed outside a wildlife preserve in Zimbabwe, Ty is hand-picked to lead the investigation. He finds himself in the middle of a turf war between ivory smugglers and an amazing group of female antipoaching rangers trying to protect a herd of endangered elephants. If his enemies in NCISHQ don't get him, it's even money the wilds of Zimbabwe will. But Tyrone Benhoff doesn't quit a case … even when the whole thing was a setup from the start. Blood Red Ivory is a wild ride of a thriller from John Stamp, whose twenty-year law enforcement career included posts as a police officer and special agent with the FBI and NCIS.
