An intriguing and thought provoking read, In The Shade Of The Tembusu Tree is the tale of two very different women, Esmirada and Lucinda. Esmirada, poor, Filipino and born in the slums, struggles to survive in life and accepts the path that God has chosen for her. Lucinda, married to wealthy Hallam and living the life of an ex-pat Australian in Singapore, has wealth and success at her fingertips. From two different worlds, Esmirada and Lucinda are brought together through coincidence and form a subtle trust and friendship that will serve them well in the difficult times ahead. From the leafy, sylvan lanes of Surrey in England and the sleek colonial homes of Singapore to the devastating plight of the slum- and waste-dwellers of the Philippines, In The Shade Of The Tembusu Tree is a wonderful story of friendship, courage, endurance and optimism.
