Fiona Graham Duncanson

In 1966 Jim Scott, aged 22, qualified as a veterinary surgeon and landed the job of his dreams working in Kenya. Just before leaving, he fell in love with Fiona, a Scottish girl, but there was no chance of a lasting relationship and they agreed to part. Three and a half years later, Jim is mentally and physically scarred by a lion, which he kills with a 'panga', but not before it kills a woman he cares about. At his wit's end working through the tragedy, Fiona comes out to Kenya. They find their love has not died, but Jim is too hung up on the past. Fi takes the lead and loves his fears away and they start planning a wedding and a family and their lives together. Then, persuaded by a senior MI6 officer to gather information on their travels in Kenya and in other African countries, they face danger that could threaten everything they've worked for and dreamed of.
