Mara, a young Australian, falls deeply in love with John, a big-game hunter who lives on the spectacular grasslands of East Africa. He promises everything Mara is looking for, and she joins him there, full of hopes and dreams. But three short years later, their safari lodge is in trouble - and so, too, is their marriage.
When a Hollywood movie crew descends to film on location, Mara knows this could be the lodge\'s salvation. The success of the shoot depends on her, and she thrives on her sudden responsibility and independence. But she also finds herself dangerously attracted to the film\'s leading man.
A poignant love story set against the breathtaking backdrop of Tanzania, The Hunter\'s Wife explores a young woman\'s heartfelt struggle to reconcile duty and desire. Amid the gritty reality of the hunter\'s world and the make-believe realm of the film-maker, Mara finds that passion must be measured against courage, and that fate will reward the brave.
