The story of Luke Novak, a normal, fun-loving Canadian teen whose life has been torn apart by his parents' divorce. Luke's father, a mining engineer now working in East Africa, sends for his son in the hope of helping the 17-year-old through rough times. But it is Africa as much as his father that brings Luke around. Here he befriends Themba, a 16-year-old African who introduces him to a world of incredible natural beauty fraught with intrigue, romance and sometimes danger.
