About this ebook
When Martha's husband dies, she is left to raise her two daughters on her own. Fearlessly optimistic for her girls' future, Martha moves heaven and earth to give her daughters the best education possible. But despite her efforts, her oldest daughter, Olivia, falls in love with a degenerate man who becomes the young woman's greatest saboteur as soon as they are married.
If Olivia wants to embrace the life that her mother envisioned for her and her sister, then she will have to overcome the enemy sleeping beside her.
He Shall Bruise Her Heel weaves stories from three generations of women living in the tiny village of Kuritu, Kenya, who overcome their fate in order to claim a better life. With powerful depictions of farm life, oppression, and domestic abuse, this novel offers dramatic, moving accounts that will forever change your perspective of Africa and its people.
This important historical story transports the reader to a small, impoverished village where one hopeful woman is determined to shed the cultural bonds that she was born into and create a better life for herself, her children, and her grandchildren to come.
