Stepping On Orange Sand

By Jennifer Wineberg

Melissa Simmerton's father dies in May 2017 and with his last breath he claims that a vast fortune is tied up in 'The Badagry Expedition, ' which she dreams of using to transform the lives of her ageing mother and heroin addicted sister. In her desperation to unearth her legacy she seeks the support of a shady businessman whom she nicknames the Lizard. She is shocked to discover that he can offer her a way to travel to Badagry in 1830 to claim her inheritance. Sailing into Badagry at the height of the slave trade she is plunged into the dangers and conflicts faced by a modern woman in the male dominated world of Pre-Colonial Africa. Confronting perils both on the water and in the chaos of tribal warfare she struggles to find the truth and escape with her legacy.
