  <default_description>Vanessa Henman, a brittle middle-aged British writer, is attending a Pan-African Writers' Conference in Uganda. She decides to pay her former cleaner, Mary Tendo, a surprise visit. But Mary, now the Executive Housekeeper of the Sheraton Hotel in Kampala, has secretly borrowed Vanessa's ex-husband Trevor, a plumber, and taken him to her home village to help build a well. Vanessa decides instead to take a trip into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to see the mountain gorillas. But she manages to insult her driver so much that he leaves her in the lurch, and as war threatens Bwindi from the Congo side of the border, it's up to Trevor and Mary to come to her aid. A comedy of cultural errors.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed this. Its a sort of sequel to My cleaner. Outlines the political situation in Uganda very well and poverty outside of the main cities.<br/><br/>Lots of humour and characters very well written.]]></body>
