Finding Belle

Belle and Fairfax have a tempestuous marriage. Wed after a whirlwind romance in Belle's hometown of Mombasa, they returned to England as man and wife, little anticipating the culture shock Belle would face. Alienated from her peers, far from relatives and friends who would have grounded her, and with a husband who couldn't – wouldn't – face her crisis, Belle gradually untethers from the world.

Years later, their only daughter Mivvi must decode her mother's illnesses and her father's infidelities, through adolescence and into adulthood, as she tries to shape a future of her own, while uncovering what's been hidden from her.
