Description

Winner of the Best First Book Award at Zimbabwe International Book Fair 2010.

Ellie is a shy girl growing up in post-Independence Zimbabwe, longing for escape from the confines of small-town life.

When she eventually moves to Britain, her wish seems to have come true.

But life there is not all she imagined. And when her grandmother Evelyn is brutally murdered, a set of diaries are uncovered - spilling out family secrets and recounting a young Evelyn's passionate and dangerous affair with a powerful married man. In the light of new discoveries, Ellie begins to re-evaluate her relationship with her grandmother, and must face up to some truths about herself in the process.

Set against the backdrop of a country in change, Ellie - burdened by the memories and the misunderstandings of the past - must also find a way to move forward in her own romantic endeavors.
