Bloods Mist by David Donald

Bloods Mist by David Donald  

Richard and Kaunu are the central characters in the story of a family group of  Drakensberg Bushmen and a British farming family who, in the mid-1800's, had emigrated to the Colony of Natal. Spanning a period of roughly ten years, the story interweaves the experiences of both families. With mounting tension, the parallel events and hardships that each family go through, lead inexorably towards the point where they clash - with devastating consequences for them both.

David Donald evokes an authentic sense of time and place in Blood Mist, and his meticulous research around  the culture of the Drakensberg Bushmen and the drastically changing circumstances in which they lived in the mid 1800s, brings his characters words and actions vividly to life.
