She moves through the jungle naked like the animals. Sir Donovan’s daughter was thought dead after a plane crash that killed her mother and relatives in the African wilderness. Fifteen years later, reports reach Europe that a Kenyan tribe has crowned a white woman as their queen—Tarzana, “strange woman” in Bantu. Sir Donovan hopes she may be his long‑lost daughter.
