Book: Where Lions Still Roar Rebeka, a Maasai orphan adopted by German missionaries, is trapped between two cultures with a burden she cannot bear--the responsibility of fulfilling her people's ancient legend.

East Africa, 1905. An ancient Maasai legend rests on an infant girl orphaned by a smallpox epidemic. Rebeka, adopted by German missionaries, is trapped between two cultures with a burden she cannot bear--the legend's fulfillment that she alone inherits. Around her swirl the events of the early twentieth centure: a massive rebellion, a world war, and the transfer of her country from German to British control. Rebeka's responsibility to the legend is ultimately decided by a landmark case in His Majesty's Court where German missionaries, an Italian exile, British colonials, and tribal costums clash.
