Her mouth soft and warm, saying, "e;Trams are romantic things, aren't they."e;In 1919, among indentured Indians, defeated Zulus and Boers still smarting from a Second Boer War defeat and the suppression of another rebellion in 1914, Donald Kirkwood, a Scottish ex-soldier, starts a remote Zululand cotton farm. With little knowledge of agriculture, he and his settler neighbours must cope with malaria, sleeping sickness, racial tensions and Spanish Flu. As the influences of Eugenics, Nationalism and Bolshevism seep into ex-colonial society he attends an unsettling seance in Durban and meets a pretty librarian.
