Goldfields
KShs540.00
Nuria Ranking: #7 in Secondary (8-4-4)The lands known as Goldfields have been the centre of a struggle for the right to own property, human dignity, and self-worth. It is here where betrayal, greed and opportunism have also taken root. With a deep sense of hope, Goldfielders bestow on the youthful Mukiri the unenviable task of saving them from the jaws of ravenous directors at Goldfields Agriculture Company. Inspired by the spirit of his grandfather, Mukiri undertakes the task with zeal, coming head-to-head with the exceedingly beautiful but ruthless Lydia Mbora, daughter of the first African CEO of the company. A clash of unknown proportions is in the offing as the scions of two families whose histories are so entwined slug it out.
