But in between traumatic encounters with the men she suspected responsible for his death, a very different truth emerged - Charles had been having an affair before and during their marriage.This beautifully-written and moving story charts Lesley's physical and emotional journey through a post-genocide Rwanda still shrouded in deceit and confusion. Despite the painful revelations, she gained a new sense of freedom from knowing the truth, and a fresh belief in herself and in God.
