The time is 1939. White South Africa is a deeply divided nation with many of the Afrikaner people fanatically opposed to the English. The earth is on the brink of war and South Africa elects to fight for the Allied cause against Germany. Six-year-old Tom Fitzsaxby finds himself at an orphanage in a remote town in the high mountains, where in fact the Afrikaners side fiercely with Hitlers Germany. Toms English name proves sufficient for him to be ostracised, marking him as an outsider. Therefore begin a few of lifes tougher lessons for the small, lonely boy. Just like the whitethorn, one of Africas most enduring plants, Tom learns how to survive in the harsh climate of racial hatred. A terrible event sends him on the journey to ensure that justice is done. Along the way, his most unexpected discovery is love.
