‘I don’t know about that. But I do know about Anthony. He’s totally committed when it comes to his love of this country, and he’s passionate about keeping the parks and the game reserves intact. But when it comes to women, he’s different. I’ve see the way Camilla looks at him, and I think it might be the first time she’s really loved someone. So I hope he behaves decently.’ Hannah turned suddenly and placed her arms around Sarah. ‘And it’s as well my domkop brother has come to his senses. I’m very pleased about that, yes.’

‘Nothing has happened.’ Sarah saw the expression of exaggerated disbelief on Hannah’s face and moved away, embarrassed by the ever-present reddening of her skin. ‘Well, not really. I mean, he kissed me. Once. Before you arrived at the lodge the other day.’

‘Not really? Just once? Ha!’ Hannah was crowing with delight. ‘He knows in his heart now. I’m sure he does. It may take him a while to admit it, but he knows. And that’s good, it’s very good.’
