Description

1880, South Africa - a land torn apart by greed...Frances Irvine, left penniless after her father's sudden death, is forced to emigrate to the Cape. In this barren country, she meets two very different men - one driven by ambition, the other by ideals. When a smallpox outbreak sends her to the diamond mines, she is drawn into a ruthless world of greed and exploitation, of human lives crushed in the scramble for power. But here - at last - she sees her path to happiness. Torn between passion and integrity, she makes a choice that has devastating consequences...

About the Author

I graduated from Oxford University in 2002, and went on to work in film and publishing before leaving my day job to do an MA in Creative Writing at Bath Spa University. The Fever Tree was a Richard & Judy Bookclub Pick. My second novel, Leopard at the Door, will be published by Penguin in 2017. I live in London with my husband and our three young children.Praise for The Fever Tree“There is nothing more exciting than a new writer with a genuine voice. I loved it.” - Julian Fellowes, Creator of Downton Abbey“A gripping story, vividly written. I found myself thinking of its scenes long after I had turned the last page.” Kim Edwards, bestselling author of The Memory Keeper’s Daughter“A beautifully written novel of great feeling – I loved it.” - Rachel Hore, bestselling author of A Place of Secrets“A compelling read with a Gone with the Wind feel to it. I was hooked.” - Katharine McMahon, bestselling author of The Alchemist’s Daughter“A magical, bewitching tale of loss, betrayal and love.” - Vogue
