When Fiona, a young Scottish woman from a small coastal town, goes
to college in Nottingham, little does she dream that she will one
day live in a place much further from home than this. By chance she
meets a black African man in a rainy street and over the next few
months they gradually fall in love. It's 1960 and Fiona finds
little support from her family, especially from her mother.
Nevertheless she marries WiI and they go to live in his home town
in Sierra Leone. This is a beautifully told story of the most
passionate and extraordinary love. But right from the start it's
obvious that Fiona faces the dilemma of life in a society so
different to the one she has left. A growing sense of unease keeps
us reading on. Are there unforeseen dangers that can destroy her
happiness? The book is not just about Fiona's life in Africa, it
also tells how she comes to understand where her real destiny lies.
It is a truly moving tale of tragedy, grief, joy and finally
contentment.
