Product Description

Synopsis

Evan Busagwa is determined to get rich. He isn't ready to meet any stumbling blocks, but is ready to be a stumbling block to whoever steps in his way. He murders John Bosco Mukasa and Vincent Kalule, both coffee traders. With calculated deceit and manipulation he takes over John Bosco's property and later marries Kalule's widow. Anastanzia Kirabo, the only surviving child of John Bosco, leads her life in a world of fear. She has to run away from the murderer, Busagwa, whom she only knows as 'the stranger'. For some years, her life turns out to be of incognito living. Ivan Kabuye, Kalule's bereaved son, has to live with Busagwa as a stepfather. His uncertainties about his stepfather grow with each passing day. And when his mother, Maria, dies, suspicion kindles within him. He's sparked off to find out who his stepfather is. Glaydah Namukasa was born in Uganda. Bereaved of her father as a child, she grew up in Entebbe with her mother, three sisters and two brothers.
