About the book
When Fenella Harcourt travelled to Mozambique with her father, she made many surprising discoveries. But the most amazing of them all was the irresistibly charming, infuriatingly autocratic, Carlos Pereira who lived like an overlord in a palatial dwelling. The love story of Fenella and Carlos unfolds against the colourful backcloth of Portuguese East Africa, where the sub-tropic climate and the Latin temperament combine to keep emotions running high.
