The narrative follows the main character, who is a mixed-race individual raised in a Tsulu community, exploring themes of identity, colonialism, and the dynamics between the TsZulu people and European settlers. The intrigue is heightened by significant historical figures such as King Cetewayo and the author's personal reflections on friendship and cultural integration. The opening of the book introduces the protagonist, who shares an intimate morning scene with his friend Ula, a Tsulu chief's son, as they prepare to embark on their daily tasks.
