Southern Africa, 1901. A woman breaks her chains and challenges an empire. A story of second chances that will steal your heart.
Shayna Orliens arrives in southern Africa in 1901, fleeing a scandal that has shaken London's high society. As she struggles to rebuild herself and evades the investigation of Scotland Yard, which suspects her in her husband's disappearance, she meets a mysterious Scottish sculptor who harbors a grave secret.
In her exotic new world, Shayna finds refuge in the words of Emily Hobhouse, who, through the press, bravely denounces the abuses of the British Empire in the Anglo-Boer War. (Lecturalia)
