Ape house : a novel

Gruen, Sara. (Author).

Summary: Isabel has never been able to connect with other people. However, she has always been close to animals, especially the family of bonobo apes at her laboratory. But when an explosion rocks the lab, sending Isabel to the hospital, the bonobo family escapes. Everybody is perplexed by the disappearance until the apes' mysterious appearance on a reality TV show propels scientist Isabel Duncan, together with reporter John Thigpen, on a personal mission to rescue them. An entertaining book that calls into question our assumptions about these animals who share 99.4% of our DNA.
