English Summary/英文概要: Andrea’s new novel is again set in Zimbabwe but at a time when it was still Rhodesia: it is the 1960s and the guerilla war haunts the bushlands. For Tinashe, a young Shona boy living in the countryside, it only infrequently affects his quiet life: school; swimming in the river; playing with the other kids on the Kopje.When his younger sister, Hazvinei, is born, however, Tinashe knows at once that there is something special about her. Their life in the village, once disturbed only by the occasional visits of his successful uncle and city cousin, Abel, now becomes entangled with the dual forces of the Shona spirit world and the political turmoil of the nation.
As Tinashe, Hazvinei and Abel grow older, their destinies entangle in ways they never expected. Tinashe is prepared to follow his sister anywhere - but how far can he go to keep her safe when the forces threatening her are so much darker and more sinister than he suspected ... and closer to home?
