The narrative is set in South Africa, specifically in the context of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and it revolves around the lives and political intrigues of its characters. Central to the story is the old doctor whose love for South African history and disillusionment with English rule greatly influence the events that unfold, particularly as he imparts his knowledge to the protagonist. The opening of the book introduces readers to the narrator's relationship with an elderly doctor living in a small village in the Orange Free State. This doctor, who has a vast knowledge of the history of South Africa, becomes a mentor and friend to the narrator. After a brief description of their friendship, the narrator recounts how the doctor’s fondness for historical discourse inspires him to share a story from his past, beginning with his own return to the Cape in 1835. The story leads to a significant discovery made by the doctor, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of South African history intertwined with personal narratives. This mix of personal and historical storytelling teases the complexity of the characters’ lives against the backdrop of the political landscape of the time.
