There are two kinds of wars: one external, a public war for all the world to witness: the other intensely private, glimpsed at by only a few.

It is 1916 on the German East African frontier – surrounded by the beauty and oppressive heat of the African savanna with its guardian, Kilimanjaro towering above the skyline, and a war of words and prejudice flares up – these are yet early days for the South African and Rhodesian regiments to be integrating with the men of the King’s African Rifles and the Indian Baluchis.

But in battle every man must discover for himself the hard truths of his own fears and the meaning of courage.

When Lieutenant Michael Fuller went to war, haunted by the memory and desire for the woman he left behind, he had no idea that his secret mission into enemy territory would take him beyond the guns and bombs, deep into the heart of the human spirit.
