A social novel with adventurous elements set in the exotic backdrop of Cairo during the dramatic period leading up to World War II. Adventure, love, and war unfold through a vibrant cast of intriguing characters, situated in colonial Africa during the tumultuous 1930s, as the old good times fade and a global conflict looms on the horizon. The Café Waterfall, located on a Nile boat, serves as a meeting place for people of various nationalities and fates. The central theme revolves around the story of an English hunter and his wife, who is fatefully drawn to an Italian officer. The struggle for the woman's affection intensifies when the Italian occupation of Abyssinia pits the two men against each other, not only as rivals in love but also as enemies on the battlefield. This engaging and tastefully written book is rooted in true historical realities.
