Jane Mortifee tells the story of a quest for forgiveness and healing from the ravages of vengeance, bitterness and hate. On the riverbank near an African village, a violent act sets into motion fates that intertwine and continue to bring anguish and torment through to the next generation. How can reconciliation and forgiveness ever bring healing when grief, revenge and destiny continue to play out their purpose?When a devastating fire rips through the village, lives are lost and survivors are changed forever. After the fire, a young woman, Ntombi, and young man, Hlwelo, embark on very different journeys. One wanders terrified and alone in the deep wilderness, plagued by demons and nightmares. The other travels through sorrow and self-doubt into a new life as a powerful Sangoma, a medicine healer. After many years, both the Sangoma and the tormented soul must overcome their greatest personal challenges to find resolution and peace.With attention to detail, the author evokes everyday life in the village and reveals how pain and loss can be transformed through the power of tribal earth and mystical spirit connections.
