Paulo Belchior Gaspard lived and worked in Namibia for three and a half years. He fell deeply in love with it and learned to respect its vast landscapes, the warmth of its people and the desert light. This story is a fictional one but this work also reflects the author’s own experiences and impressions of the lands and people encountered.

Having inherited Farm Riedlingen from her ancestors, the European Valerie and her two daughters are destined to meet the African Nigel and his two sons. Together with locals they will rebuild the farm and give new meaning to the European-African patchwork-family.
