'Beautifully written and emotionally devastating' Daily Mail
A beautiful and heart-breaking story set in South Africa where two
mothers - a century apart - must fight for their sons, unaware their
fates are inextricably linked.
Orange Free State, 1901. At the height of the Boer War, Sarah van der
Watt and her six-year-old son Fred can only watch as the British burn
their farm. The polite invaders cart them off to Bloemfontein
Concentration Camp promising you will be safe here.
Johannesburg, 2010. Sixteen-year-old Willem is an outsider who just
wants to be left alone with his Harry Potter books and Britney, his
beloved pug. Worried he's turning out soft, his Ma and her new
boyfriend send him to New Dawn Safari Camp, where they 'make men out of
boys.' Guaranteed.
The red earth of the veldt keeps countless secrets whether beaten by
the blistering sun or stretching out beneath starlit stillness. But no
secret can stay buried forever.
