Note from the Author
The inspiration for this story is rooted in real events. In this case, the real event was a trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe that my wife and I made in 2023.
The route we traveled from Cape Town to Johannesburg and Victoria Falls is coincidentally the same route that Fiona and Karl travel. The idea formed during our tour of the Kimberley diamond mine and grew from there. Like the gold rush, the diamond rush in South Africa in the late 1800s was fueled by excitement and greed. I recall standing at the edge of the Big Hole imagining the chaos as fortunes were made and lost.
It wasn't our first time in Africa but it was the first time I've ever been so inspired. While we didn't chase any long-hidden family secrets or find missing diamonds, the experience was unforgettable.
I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed telling it.
