While England is planting its colonial roots in Africa, David Livingston, the world-famous missionary, sends word to his sister in Scottland that he is dying and needs her help. Janet Livingston, a woman who has never left her small Scottish town, let alone the British Isles, must travel into the heart of Africa and confront her deepest fears, the brutal reality of the slave trade and the persistent sense that women are not meant to leave the home, in order to fulfill her brother's mission. Into Africa is the thrilling story of Janet Livingston, her clash with Henry Stanley, and her surprising relationship with their guide, Goma Foutou, as they struggle for survival in the most unforgiving of places.
