The siblings Hannah and Andrew haven't seen each other in three years. While Hannah is going through a prolonged episode where she can't leave her house, her brother has just landed back in LA and sets off to Pasadena on foot. He goes on a day-long journey through the city with only one goal in mind: Prolonging the reunion with his sister for as long as he possibly can.
Krotoa, a feisty, bright, 11-year-old girl is removed from her close-knit Khoi tribe to serve Jan van Riebeeck, her uncle’s trading partner and the first Governor of the Cape Colony. She is brought into the first Fort established by the Dutch East India Company in 1652. There she grows into a visionary young woman who assimilates the Dutch language and culture so well that she rises to become an influential translator but ends up being rejected by her own people as she tries to bridge the gap between the two cultures about to collide.
