She gambled with her husband's trust. At stake is-everything. Evy Varley's marriage to Rogan Chantry is all she had hoped it would be-until she finds out that she is pregnant with a honeymoon baby. Fearing that Rogan won't allow her to travel while she is expecting, Evy plots to keep her pregnancy secret in order to accompany him to South Africa. Her thoughts are not only for her husband, but Evy is determined to travel to Bulawayo, the new mission station of Dr. Jakob van Buren-the one man who can help Evy to finally clear her mother's name. After she and Rogan set out to sea, however, Evy discovers that she has gone too far in her deceit, and the damage to her marriage may be irreversible. Matters only worsen in Africa, where malaria, murder, and an African uprising all take their toll-and where Rogan and Evy must fight not only for their love, but also for their very lives.
