Stephen Mzamane's journey as a preacher in southern Africa is marked by deep personal challenges, including his estrangement from his family and the discrimination faced from church leaders towards black pastors. His past haunts him, particularly the memory of "That Woman," who remains an elusive figure in his life after a brief encounter. As he navigates these struggles, the story explores themes of identity, belonging, and the complexities of faith amidst societal injustices.

This is a novel of love and dispossession in which individual destinies are played out against the backdrop of the country's wider conflicts at the turn of the century, particularly the turbulence and discord wrought by the inevitable clash of different cultures.
