Theo Miller is young, bright and ambitious when he and his earnest younger sister Maud step off the train into the simmering heat of Nairobi. Both eagerly await their new life, yet neither are prepared for the pain it will bring.

When Theo meets American heiress Sylvie de Croÿ, he is welcomed into her inner circle – the Happy Valley set – rich, dazzling expatriates, infamous for their scandalous lifestyles.

Yet behind Sylvie’s intoxicating allure lies a powerful cocktail
of secrets, lust and betrayal. As dark clouds gather over Kenya’s future and his own, Theo must escape this most unsuitable woman – before it is too late.

First published as The Hunters.

Immersing himself in the historical and biographical sagas of Kenya, Theo finds himself entangled in a web of friendship and betrayal. The top fiction of its kind, this tale is a testament to the power of ambition and the intoxicating allure of secrets.

For fans of Aj Pearce (Dear Mrs Bird), Dinah Jefferies (The Hidden Palace), Amanda Geard (The Midnight House), Kate Atkinson (Shrines of Gaiety), and Stacey Halls (Mrs England).
