‘Hide!’ shouts her father. Then he breaks cover to draw the hunting party away across the blackened plain. The child sees them shoot him. And murder her mother.
It’s the 1950s but Koba is a hunter-gatherer from an ancient living culture. She’s a survivor. She fends for herself in a hostile land.
Now she’s in the greatest danger she’s ever faced: she’s falling for a white boy in Apartheid South Africa, where love across racial divides is brutally punished.
Book 1 of this fast-paced saga introduces a unique character into romance-writing, offering readers a fascinating glimpse into a forgotten way of life and into recent black history.
