Show Me a Mountain

A story of revolution and oppression, privilege and poverty, love and betrayal from the critically acclaimed author of Pao Fay Wong is caught between worlds. Her father is a Chinese immigrant who conjured a fortune from nothing; her African heritage mother grew up on a plantation and now reigns over their mansion in Lady Musgrave Road. But her father`s Chinatown haunts are out of bounds and the airy rooms of their home are filled with her mother`s uncontrollable rages – rages against which Fay rebels as she grows into a headstrong woman. As she tries to escape the restraints of her privileged upbringing, Fay`s eyes are opened to a Jamaica she was never meant to see. And when her mother decides that she must marry the racketeer Yang Pao, she finds herself on a journey that will lead to sacrifice and betrayal.
