About the Book

Die Geschichtsstudentin Mareike plant eine Abschlussarbeit über den Kampf um die Abschaffung der Sklaverei auf Jamaika und beschließt, die Insel für Recherchezwecke zu besuchen. Kurz nach ihrer Ankunft trifft sie den flippigen Musiker David, der ihr auch die Szene der Dancehalls und Reggeakonzerte vorstellt. Der strebsame Bücherwurm Mareike lernt eine ihr völlig neue Welt kennen, verliebt sich zu allerersten Mal Hals über Kopf und entdeckt auch den längst vergriffenen Text eines Missionars, der den größten Sklavenaufstand der Insel miterlebte. London 1830: nach dem Tod ihrer Eltern bricht die mittellose Emily Lawson nach Jamaika auf, wo ihr Mann Jeremiah als Baptistenpfarrer Sklaven den christlichen Glauben näherbringen wollte. Sie hat seit Jahren nichts mehr von ihm gehört und als sie ihn endlich findet, stellt sie fest, dass sie nicht erwünscht ist. Jeremiah hat in der entlaufenen Sklavin Nancy seine wahre Liebe gefunden. Emily versucht, sich dennoch eine Existenz auf der Insel aufzubauen, und begegnet dem charmanten, als Frauenheld verrufenen Christopher Hindley, dessen Vater zu den reichen Plantagenbesitzern gehört. Obwohl Emily und er auf verschiedenen Seiten stehen, fühlen sie sich zueinander hingezogen. Dann bricht ein Aufstand der Sklaven aus, der die ganze Insel erschüttert und Emilys Leben gefährdet.
About the Author: Ich bin gebürtige Tschechin, in München aufgewachsen und seit 2007 veröffentlichte Autorin. Den Traum vom Schreiben hatte ich schon mit 14, doch musste sehr viel Zeit vergehen, bis er wahr wurde. Vorher ging ich brav zur Schule, studierte Sprachen, lebte einige Zeit im Ausland und schlug mich mehr oder weniger begeistert mit den verschiedensten Jobs durchs Leben. Doch der Drang zu schreiben ließ mich nicht los, so dass ich mich schließlich doch ernsthaft ans Werk machte - und dann viel schneller einen Verlag fand als angenommen. Mein besonderes Interesse beim Schreiben gilt historischen Ereignissen, ungewöhnlichen Frauengestalten und der Begegnung von Menschen aus verschiedenen Kulturkreisen. Ansonsten wohne ich wieder in München mit Mann, vier Katzen und zwei Papageien.
