Twenty-five-year-old Luna Burke is on the run. Licensed to care for injured and orphaned wildlife, she is determined to smuggle a homicidal Bald Eagle out of her husband’s private zoo in Florida, reunite the bird with its mate, and get them both to an eagle sanctuary in Canada. Hot on her trail is her furious husband, his bodyguards, the police, conservation officials, and an expert government tracker; aiding and abetting her is a smitten young tech guy, a lethal Navy SEAL turned panther advocate, and an underground railroad of wildlife rescuers intent on protecting one of their own. Waiting in Ontario is a legendary old eco-warrior more than willing to provide refuge…as long as Luna can make it across the border. UNFLAPPABLE is a funny, suspenseful adventure with a big cast of unconventional characters, both human and not. “In this eco-woke suspense story… excitement, adventure, romance, and sex fill the book’s pages, as does a wacky cast of characters…This zany rescue tale starring an eagle offers readers a great escape.” - Kirkus Reviews “Fast-paced, crisp, smart, and passionate, Unflappable took me on a road trip unlike anything I’ve read before. Full of laugh out loud moments, it's a comic, romantic suspense story about how animals help us find the greatness within ourselves.”—Sy Montgomery, author of The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness and The Good Good Pig "No writer captures the wild and reverent soul of wildlife rehabbers like Suzie Gilbert. Unflappable is a thrilling take of heedless, consuming, undeterred love."—Mike Bergin, founder of 10,000 Birds “In times of emotional stress, one thing that helps many to cope is disappearing into the pages of a novel filled with interesting, quirky characters playing out a rollicking, adventurous plot - a novel such as Suzie Gilbert’s ‘Unflappable.’” - Johannes E. Riutta, The Well-read Naturalist “Suzie Gilbert’s debut novel takes readers on a wild, comic, and sweet ride…” - Matt Mendenhall, BWM
