About this ebook

Mavis wanted two things in life and then she will be truly happy. It was to have somebody looking after her and seeing her children had a decent upbringing. Marcus had made a fool of her when he used her for his own selfish means, making her to become a heavy drinker and left alone with his child close to starvation. Then a man named Ramesh entered her life who treated her with respect and gave her true love. Unfortunately their love did not last when he was brutally murdered by a native impi for being in the wrong place. But sometimes when you wish for happiness it never comes, it destroys you even more.

Author

Cyril James

Cyril James, a coloured man, was born and raised in the slums of South Africa in 1945. He was educated at a primary school named St. Theresa’s in Sydenham, Durban. At the age of fourteen, he left school after doing his Standard 5 and went to work at Durban Harbour, cleaning the cargo holds of ships after they had been offloaded. He became a seaman, working as a cook, and when he left the sea, he worked at many leading hotels in the Durban and Cape Town until he felt the urge to go elsewhere. For the next twenty-five years, he went into engineering, working as a piping material supervisor at many projects around South Africa and some other countries in Africa. He is married to a coloured girl named Linda who is working with him.
