Cleaning Fire

Description

1950s Northern Rhodesia. Epic story. Winds of change are blowing – an empire fading, dreams of emancipation taking shape. But for the African-born son of Welsh colonist, and Bemba housekeeper, can freedom ever be found along the same track? As oppressor and oppressed rub shoulders to complete a railway line in the heat of the veldt, a single spark might start an all-consuming blaze.
