Open LibraryAbout this book
The protagonist of this story is a Bridget-Jones-like character, but the setting allows her a deeper character. A heart-broken London woman accepts a post with a non-profit organization that manages a famine program in Africa. In the course of her rather bracing experiences, she leverages some of the more frustrating aspects of her former social life in London to find a heroic solution to the challenges she encounters in the African refugee camp.
