About this listen

Martinique, 1765. Brothers Emile and Lucien are charged by their French master, Father Cleophas, with a mission. They must return to Grenada, the island they once called home, and smuggle back 42 slaves claimed by English invaders. While Lucien, barely in his teens, sees the trip as a great adventure, Emile has no illusions about the dangers they will face. But with no choice other than to obey, he sets out with his brother on a reckless venture.

"It is rare to read a literary novel where the storytelling is as skilful as the writing is fine, [...] Harris has pulled off the only too rare double whammy." ( The Sunday Times)
Praise for the author: "Jane Harris is rather special." ( The Observer)

Beautifully written and superbly narrated. It was a harrowing and heartbreaking tale that had me engrossed from start to finish.

This story is incredible.
