Mali, Fiction, Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
A captivating novel in the tradition of Rosie Thomas, from the author of FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND.
Sometimes, the end of a journey is just the beginning...
Emily and Clemmie's lives changed for ever when they took their great aunt's ashes to rest in a strange and exotic land. Clemmie stayed behind to begin a new life in the Mali desert, but now Emily fears for her cousin's safety. Returning to Africa with her new husband and two friends, she is determined to find out why Clemmie seems so desperately to need her help.
Divinity is travelling to Mali to satisfy her curiosity about the land her father came from, and to source new materials for her design company. She doesn't expect the chaos and adventure she finds - nor the danger that seems to grow as her little group begin to make its way across the desert towards Clemmie...
