A historical novel based on the life of the daughter of a slave from the Cape, who married the British nobleman Lord Harry Grey. They meet at the copper mines of Namaqualand, travel to Wellington and ultimately settle as Lord en Lady Grey in Wynberg. Dr. Jeanette Ferreira says ‘This novel will take pride of place in the gallery of historical novels.’
 

The life of Rachel Thoka, who was brought to South Africa as a young slave girl, took part in the Great Trek, worked for Paul Kruger and his family, led the first women's march against the pass laws, and died more than a century later. Rachel's grandson, Isaac Thoka, has put to paper the oral history as handed down by Rachel's large family.
