This is a remarkable true story of one woman's courage, to brave against the odds after a violent attack in her own home in Maun, Botswana. It is told in a straight forward fashion with a huge amount of dignity. Caitlin has no element of bitterness or resentment in her writing of the events which unfold. It is a reflection of the utter strength and determination she had to carry on after the attack. Caitlin creates a beautiful realistic scene of the wildlife and landscape and it transported me back to when I spent a few years in Africa.
