Excerpt
Africa is the only home Rachel Sheridan has ever known. But when her missionary parents are struck with influenza, she is left vulnerable to her family’s malicious neighbors. Surrounded by greed and lies, Rachel is entangled in a criminal scheme and sent to England, where she's forced into a life of deception.
Like the lion, she must be patient and strong, awaiting the moment when she can take control of her own fate—and find her way home again at last.
