...pilgrimage there himself, is that rarity in Nigeria, a successful commoner in an area still controlled largely by sultans and emirs. He studied at London University, and while no demagogue like Zik, is just as firmly committed to full independence for all of Nigeria by 1960-a date London's Colonial Office regards as too soon.

Cary and Deborah agree to rid themselves of their previous encumbrances, make a date to meet again after six months devoted to finding themselves (she was once a singer; he painted). But on the day of their reunion, a screech of brakes is heard offscreen, and next thing Deborah is a cripple, maybe for the rest of her life. Unless she can recover completely, Cary must...
