About this listen
Tinashe is a young Shona boy living in a small village in rural Rhodesia. The guerilla war of the late 1960s haunts the bushlands, but rarely affects his quiet life. When his younger sister, Hazvinei, is born, Tinashe knows at once that there is something special about her. Their life in the village, once disturbed only by the occasional visits of his successful uncle and city cousin, Abel, now becomes entangled with the dual forces of the Shona spirit world and the political turmoil of the nation.
As Tinashe, Hazvinei, and Abel grow older, their destinies entangle in ways they never expected. Tinashe is prepared to follow his sister anywhere, but how far can he go to keep her safe when the forces threatening her are so much darker and more sinister than he suspected?

story was great, however, the insecestual nature of the relationship was not necessary and also in black zim not a thing. Black Zimbabweans see cousins as siblings, not as lovers. this is not a norm. bad portrayal of black Zimbabwe and further exacerbates the problem of white being superior.
As someone whose parents grew up in Rhodesia, and as someone who has studied this time period, this was a bit disappointing for me.
Good story but wrong accent
