Zimbabwe is a country both blessed and cursed. British diplomat Philip
Barclay witnessed the downfall of what used to be Africa's finest
country, culminating in the tumultuous events of 2008 when Zimbabwe's
people voted against Robert Mugabe. But their desire for change was
denied as vicious squads of indoctrinated youths loyal to the ageing
dictator launched a campaign of murder, rape and destruction. In the
wake of such terror, the economy and public services collapsed, leading
to widespread poverty and epidemics of diseases that Zimbabwe had not
seen in living memory.

This electrifying account records the
violent excesses of a hated clique prepared to do anything to cling to
power. It is also a personal story of the extraordinary resilience of
Zimbabwe's people.
