520    Cold and poverty define Hanna Renstrom's childhood in 
       remote northern Sweden, and in 1905, at nineteen, she 
       boards a ship for Australia in hope of a better life. But 
       none of her hopes--or fears--prepares her for the life she
       will lead. After two brief marriages, she finds herself a 
       widow twice over, and the owner of a bordello in 
       Portuguese East Africa, a world where colonialism and 
       white supremacy rule, where she is isolated within society
       by her profession and her sex, and, among the bordello's 
       black prostitutes, by her color. As Hanna's story unfurls 
       over the next several years, we watch her in this 
       "treacherous paradise," as she wrestles with a constant, 
       wrenching loneliness and with the racism she's meant to 
       unthinkingly adopt. And as her life becomes increasingly 
       intertwined with the prostitutes, she moves inexorably 
       toward the moment when she will make a decision that 
       defies every expectation society has of her, and, more 
       important, those she has of herself.
