Publisher's Summary

Peter Gardner, a white scientist from England, is exiled after performing dangerous experiments on patients. He flees with his beautiful young daughter, Virginia, to the Caribbean, where he raises her in isolation among few people - all natives. One of those natives is Carlos, a young boy of mixed race. Virginia and Carlos develop a forbidden friendship, which later blooms into a love that binds them above all cultural, racial, and paternal resistance. This is a touching love story and a haunting coming-of-age tale.

Compelling retelling of The Tempest

A page-turner in audio formats. Starts as a dialogue, continues and ends in two monologues. A gripping tale of racism and prejudice, laced with irony and hypocrisy, played by Prospero unto himself.
