A riveting and profound read.
This intriguing book retains its momentum from beginning to end.
The mysterious disappearances of people in the mist-enshrouded mountains of the Eastern Highlands are used effectively to lay bare much of a dark past. It contrasts events in the new Zimbabwe of the nineties against Rhodesia and a fractured pre-colonial history.
It kept me spellbound.
Africa holds a unique fascination amidst its exotic landscape and Cliff McIlwaine captures and brings together an assortment of colourful characters from different cultural backgrounds which enhance the dramatic tensions.
A magical combination of the prosaic and the spiritual creates fascinating insights into the social, political and historical ethos of Zimbabwe.
An enjoyable novel which certainly held my attention.
