Description
In 1939, Northern Kenya became the backdrop for an unlikely alliance between Francesca and Jack Harding. A young Italian girl with English roots, Francesca finds herself drawn to the District Officer, despite their differences. As they navigate the complexities of war-torn Africa, their relationship blossoms. Tragedy strikes when Jack is captured by the Japanese in Burma, and he disappears into the POW camps. Meanwhile, Francesca returns home to Nairobi, where she transforms her family's estate into a thriving hotel. Years later, Sir Richard Harding summons Francesca to London, seeking her help in finding his missing son. Determined to uncover the truth, Francesca sets out on a perilous journey to Burma. With its rich historical setting and intricate characters, this novel tells a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and survival.
