Anwei's Diamond

Anwei and her beau Jason start life in a Cameroonian village whose peaceful rhythm is shattered in a massacre by a marauding squad of Biaffran soldiers. Escaping to the big city of Douala, an encounter with an English expatriate forestry manager leaves her with a mixed race baby who is adopted by the father and educated in England. By a turn of fate, he and an unreconstructed Apartheid racist and a band of international misfits become partners in a quest for minerals promising to make them all many millions of dollars. Brimming with emotional encounters and violent conflicts, this African story is a truly exotic human experience. This book describes resilient people battling against tough circumstances in an alien environment to enrich themselves, help others, and, at times, to simply survive on the edge.
