The Happy Valley

Description for THE HAPPY VALLEY by Christopher Nicole:

Murder, Intrigue, Love and hate, these were bound into the lives of the people in Happy Valley...

Son of one of East Africa's eminent families, John Barclay returns home from the bush at the end of the First World War to a hero's welcome---and to his beautiful wife, Adele. Beside his is Joseph Kinshasu, a faithful Kikuyu servant, but a man with ambitions for his own people.

As the scandal of the decadent British settlers intensifies, so, too, does the black struggle for independence, culminating in the horror of the Mau Mau---and John and Joseph are drawn inexorably into bloody and bitter confrontation in whit only one man can win.
