    About this ebook

    A twelve year old native is offered to the gods in the bushes of precolonial Africa by fire. She returns in vengeance only to discover a new band of colonialists attempting to entreat the locals, and in turn worm their way into the British Cameroons. A most fortuitous happening, as the spirit child conspires to skin off the wiry tension between the colonialists and the natives and kindle the explosion that initiates her revenge.
