Description

Set against the backdrop of war and its aftermaths, Slash and Burn is a powerful tale of one woman's struggle to keep her daughters safe. As she navigates the treacherous landscape of rural life, she must confront the ruthless machismo of combat with quiet intelligence.

The story follows a woman who has outlived countless men, yet still faces a daunting task: finding her lost daughter in a community riven with distrust and fear. With meagre resources, she embarks on a perilous journey across the Atlantic, driven by a fierce determination to reunite with her child.

Through its slow-burning narrative, Slash and Burn creates a suspenseful portrayal of rural life in the aftermath of political trauma, as ordinary women reckon with extraordinary hardship. A gripping and thought-provoking novel, it is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
