Desert of Lies

The fortunes of two expeditions a century and a half apart become mysteriously linked in the same desolate stretch of Kalahari Desert. In 1848 the Broon family are sent by the London Missionary Society to look for and convert a legendary race of strangely deformed savages. In 1983, a team of three people go off in search of what really happened.
