The Lupane Legacy
Darby G. Holladay
The story starts out in Zimbabwe . . . . imagine being 5 years old,
going out to collect the daily supply of wood and seeing your entire
village being slaughtered right before your young innocent eyes.
Patrick at the young age of five lost his family and the life he once
knew.
Patrick was taken in by Contstance's family. They raised young
Patrick as their own. When he became 18 he went to college and to
begin his life. The one thing Patrick had on his mind was revenge. . .
making the one responsible to pay.
Joshua Denham is attending a concert in the park, held by Austrian
embassy where his cousin, Constance is playing. Constance is a
renowned violinst. Here is where Joshua will meet Devon Kerr, they
once met a year ago in Afghanistan. Joshua was in the Marines at
that time. The spark between them was once again lite.
Patrick who is now the Director of Archives for the Zimbabwe's
Central Intelligence Organization, recieves a package. One he has
been waiting for since that dreadful day when he was 5. What this
package holds will help him get justice for his family and formal
village members.
This is a wonderful written novel and very fast pace! Holladay
brought in the right amount of characters to make this African
political read one that is easy to understand. I was hoping to read
more of the budding romance between Joshua and Devon, but, I am
sure the next installment will bring them even closer together. I have
to say Holladay grabbed in on the first sentence and tugged my
heart, while picturing poor little Patrice watch such a horriable act of
violence.
