'We now fight Mugabe's police as well as his army.' His tone changed and the words came out as a low growl. Campbell turned to look at him. The black face was now completely expressionless. It was not the Kumalo of old. Philip Campbell - family man, pacifist and reluctant soldier - drawn through personal tragedy into a bitter conflict with an enemy he has never met, but who regards him with an equally impassionate hatred. Obert Chikaika - disillusioned citizen, and would-be general - forced into his own personal battle with an unknown adversary through ill-advised strategies and his own pride. Zimbabwe - a country in crisis in the years before and after independence. Set against the war of independence as Mugabe's army gradually takes control, and the descent of a once prosperous country into fear, intimidation and near-bankruptcy, this is the story of a very personal conflict in which there can be no winner.
