Makehaya escapes Apartheid South Africa into Botswana.

The novel starts with Makhaya, a well-educated refugee, who escapes South Africa by crossing the border to reach Botswana. He stumbles upon one village, but will it be a place where his dreams of living a peaceful life are realised? Or will it prove to be a hostile area populated by hostile people? In the village of Golema Mmidi, there exists a complex power relationship between two brothers Sekoto and Matenge, giving rise to corruption and exploitation of people.

Part of the appeal of the book is that we do not know the whole story of Makhaya and what previous life he led, and it is intriguing to find out more about the man.

The cover of the book is really interesting for me. When i haven't read the content i thought this book is about gather clouds real ^^
