Marriage to a hansome Ghanaian architect has brought Eva far from the quiet English countryside. Alfred had made it sound heavenly, but the hardship has drained her of vitality and the foreign culture bewilders her. But Evan has her friends - Dahlia, Yelena and Margit - all of them strangers in a foreign land, who rely on each other to fill the gaps left by distant relatives.
When a sudden coup unnerves everyone, and Eva's relationship with Alfred begins to unravel, The Association of Foreighn Spouses discovers that there are dark sides to their lives and that they must scheme and deceive to protect themselves and their families.
Set in Ghana in the turbulent eighties, this is a story of a group of women who live in a land that at times defeats them, among people who often disappoint and baffle them. Yet through their trials and hardships, the women support each other, unified by their foreignness as, ultimately they are wooed by this strange place that they come to call home.
