Far from Home

“Will I ever see my home again? I do not know. Will I ever see my father again? I do not know. Will life ever be the same again? I do not know.”

14-year old Tariro loves her ancestral home, the baobab tree she was born under, her loving family – and brave, handsome Nhamo. She couldn’t be happier. But then the white settlers arrive and everything changes – suddenly violently, and tragically. Twenty-five years later, 14-year old Katie loves her doting father, her exclusive boarding school and her farm with its baobab tree in rural Zimbabwe. Life is great. Until disaster strikes and the family are forced to leave everything and escape to cold, rainy London.
