TWO FAMILIES. TWO COUNTRIES. ONE CONFLICT.
Like his father Zouga, Ralph Ballantyne dreams of making his fortune from the rich lands of Africa. But the tribes that they - and men like them - previously exploited are rising up, and will no longer submit quietly to the greed and mindless destruction of these Colonial trespassers.
A hundred years later, the last Ballantyne, Craig Mellow, lives in the newly named Zimbabwe. The battle for Africa still rages, and for Craig there is a terrible price to pay for the actions of his ancestors . . .
A sweeping epic that explores over a century of Africa's history under colonialist rule from the late nineteenth century, The Angels Weep is a moving and exciting novel that was an instant bestseller on publication (1982).
The third book in the epic Ballantyne Series.
Book 4 in the Ballantyne series and the stunning conclusion to the story of the Ballantynes, The Leopard Hunts in Darkness, is available now.
