In the darkest days of the Second World War, a bereaved wife learns that her husband has kept an enormous secret - an illegitimate child with another woman. In an effort to avenge herself, she steals the child to raise as her own and disappears into a new life in Kenya.As the fatherless child, Kip, grows up, Africa reels under colonial oppression and seemingly endless civil wars. White and comparatively privileged, he escapes much of the strife until a brief meeting with Rose, a fifteen-year-old from Uganda whose family is mysteriously connected to his own. When her father leaves her and her brother in Nairobi to try and collect the rest of the family from the war zone on the Ugandan side of Lake Victoria, Rose becomes a model and prey to the seamiest side of the fashion world.Across the world and back again, Kip fights to save Rose from herself, and for the truth of his birth. Their love is a fragile bridge between the irreconcilable tribes fighting over the spoils of a broken continent. In Search of Africa Coates, Frank A., HarperCollins Publishers (Australia) Pty Ltd<
