In the violent tangle of modern southern Africa, journalist Toni Balser has earned a hard-won reputation for always publishing the truth.
Toni's stories are read by all - black and white - who have a part to play in determining the future of this troubled land. But along with the accolades comes terrible friction: with her husband, a fierce right-wing white businessman, and with Justice, leading black agitator, and the young brother of Toni's beloved black servant.
Slowly but inevitably her revelations lead to bloodshed, and Toni's life is scarred forever by the tragic consequences. Beyond the killing, beyond the hatred, only the redeeming power of love can heal her heart and rebulid her country's shattered dreams.
