Publisher's Summary

Die bloedlelie bloei soos ’n mens wat liefhet of ly.

In die somer van 1838 vertrek die Voortrekkerleier Piet Retief en sowat 100 man na die Zoeloekoning Dingaan om oor grond vir die trekkers te onderhandel. In die laer by Doornkop wag sy vrou Magdalena op hulle terugkeer. Die afloop van hierdie sending na Dingaan is wyd opgeteken as die Slag van Bloedrivier. Byna 180 jaar later is Hanna op soek na wat ook al Magdalena nagelaat het. Vroeg in hierdie soektog loop Hanna haar vas in ’n plaasmoord waarvoor sy nie antwoorde het nie. Bitter min is bekend oor Magdalena en haar lewe ná 1838, buiten haar brief in 1841 aan haar skoonfamilie. 

In Pietermaritzburg staan haar huisie vandag nog, nou ’n klerewinkel. Kort voor haar dood in 1854 besoek ’n handelaar haar in Potchefstroom en staan in sy boek ’n paragraaf aan haar af. Al wat ons het, is vandag en elke mens vertel ’n storie anders. Van ver af is niks soos dit vir ons lyk nie.
