Set against the most dramatic political events in South African history, a young boy embarks on a terrifying search for his brothers. Abducted when their father, a black preacher, refuses to hold subversive meetings under the guise of his church. Kazi lives on Fairvalley Farm where his father works as a labourer for the white owners, and becomes friends with their son in spite of racist attitudes. The Dark Side of the Rainbow traces the lives of the people on the farm as they are drawn into a vortex of crime and violence. This saga explores apartheid, the fight for freedom and change, the rise of Nelson Mandela from prison to lead the nation as its first black president, and offers a perspective on what it meant to be black or white during a fight for freedom that demanded a tragic price. The story, filled with unforgettable characters, is a spellbinding tale of love and faith, racial hatred and conflict, commitment, endurance, and revenge.
