Kay Marshall Strom sets The Call of Zulina, Book 1 in the Grace in Africa Series, in West Africa, 1787.

Grace Winslow is swept up in a slave revolt after she escapes the family compound to avoid an adious betrayal. As the truth about the fortress of Zulina unfolds, Grace begins to realise the brutality and ferocity of the family business: the capture and trade of slaves.

Despite being threatened with death in The Call of Zulina, Grace is moved by the plight of the captives.

The Call of Zulina is a powerful novel about the brutality of slavery in eighteenth-century Africa.

Kay Marshall Strom has published thirty-four books. Four have been chosen as book club selections, nine have been translated into foreign languages, and one has been optioned for a film. One of her best-known works is Once Blind: The Life of John Newton, which has been packaged with the DVD Amazing Grace. Kay travels the globe, speaking out against social injustice, especially that of modern day slavery.

“This compelling drama will challenge readers to remember slavery’s brutal history, and its heroic characters will inspire them. Highly recommended.” ‑‑Library Journal starred review
