This is the story of two young women who meet in Ethiopia. Beautiful Sylvie is full of joy and hope, but all her dreams come crashing down after a disastrous childbirth leaves her hiding from the world. And feisty Juliet, a surgeon in London, whose demons force her on the run to Africa which proves to be a rollercoaster of an adventure.

In Ethiopia, beautiful Sylvie's successful life is derailed by a disastrous childbirth. With no money and no hope, all seems lost.
