Publisher's Synopsis
The lion, a warrior, born of dust, of a time and culture yet unchanged is far detached from the true reality embodying the heritage of his existence. And he will remain so until the daring tropical beauty of Gabrielle Ayisi captures his eyes, shattering the dead stare that left him frequently characterized as a vagabond as opposed to the social elite he actually is. After twenty-three years of complete self-imposed social isolation, Jonathan Vanderpuye is forced to confront the root of his neuroses while battling desires alien to his emotions. But beneath it all, lays a twisted harrowing threat known only to the mother of the woman now turning his world upside down.
