Haggard is at his best in this romantic suspense story of Rachel Dove and Richard Darrien, whose lives first intersect in Africa when Richard saves Rachel, a minister’s daughter, from a flash flood. Years pass before they meet again: This time Rachel needs help escaping a Zulu tribe that would have her as their goddess and evading another man who wants her for his own.
