What is Sugar Cane?

Sugar Cane is a novel by E.E.Fry that will be published in ebook format on 1st June and paperback on 1st July. 


Do you know who you really are? Where you really come from? Beth Stephens thought she did until one rainy English afternoon from out of the blue her world comes crashing down around her and the mixed race identity she had come to accept as her own is dashed away to reveal a far more sinister reality. Sugar Cane, the first novel by E.E. Fry, journeys between the grey skies of England and the vibrant Indian Ocean island of Mauritius where the effects and consequences of slavery, indentured labour and Empire span generations. Secrets, paranoia, murder, fear, hope and trust; forget about what you think you know about the paradise island of Mauritius – it’s not all perfect beaches and five star hotels. 

“How different would all of our lives have been if it were not for the sugar cane? A double edged sword that could bless you with one blade and damn you with the other.”
