Latisha McNaughten was a contradiction in the country of her birth. She was born to an Indian father she never knew abd an African mother who died soon after her birth. Raised by a European family in a small rural town, she only discovered at the age of six, that the colour of her skin played an important role in her life. She was always seen as a black African, the problem being, she thought and lived like a white African. But she had Alistair, the only child of the couple who raised her, who became her childhood sweetheart and protector.

After Alistair's parents die tragically, he was taken away from Latisha when they were at the tender age of eight. Devastating at first, it soon became a determining factor in her life, prompting her to fulfill a promise she made to Alistair. But is was after being abused by two wealthy men during her teen years that her life became focused on success and ultimately revenge.

"This is a compelling story of innocence, abuse, ambition, success, revenge and love"
