Description
'It is big and it is clever ... Harries writes with verve and intelligence' The Times 'A fine piece of writing, subtle and never sentimental' Daily Mail 'A sweeping story of love and tragedy, it is packed with unforgettable characters' Choice A thrilling and sweeping novel from the award-winning author of Manly Pursuits The Boer War is razing South Africa to the ground. In the midst of these horrors are three women fighting for love, survival and justice: Sarah, an angelically beautiful nurse from England; Louise, her madcap friend; and the dynamic campaigner, Emily Hobhouse. As their dramas unfold, so too does the history of the war - the events that turned what was intended to be a quick annexation of the Boers into a protracted, savage conflict. In this compelling novel, with its unforgettable characters, Ann Harries brings South Africa's colonial past vividly alive.
