Against a backdrop of the savage African landscape, this is a spellbinding account of betrayal, tragedy, love and loss through the generations in Zimbabwe.

In the broken country that is Zimbabwe, only the strongest can survive.

Three families - the Bryants, the Quilter-Phipps and the Ngwenyas - share a history as complex and bloody as the country itself.

Dedicated conservationists Paul and Philippa Bryant face an enormous struggle: to save their farm and small herd of endangered black rhinos from corrupt government minister Emmerson Ngwenya. Twin brothers, ex-soldier Braedan and environmentalist Tate Quilter-Phipps join the fight.

But the brothers’ own history is fraught, and when they fall in love with the same woman, Natalie Bryant, their rivalry threatens to not only derail the attempt to save the rhinos, but also puts the lives of all involved at risk. And with Emmerson vowing to stop at nothing until he has control of the farm, a bloody showdown seems inevitable.

With blood feuds still to settle, every one of these players will be drawn into the fray, and not one will remain unscathed.
