Summary
"1782: In the bustling settlement at the Cape of Good Hope ... It is here that Geert Baardwijk, a wealthy Dutch heir, finds himself drawn to Lena, a young slave he has inherited from his father. Bartered and sold into slavery as a child, Lena pines for the distant Madagascan highlands ... When Geert marries a woman from the upper strata of Cape society to preserve his wealth and status, he is forced to confront his own responsibilities and failings, as well as the true meaning of love and fatherhood."--Dust jacket
