SEQUEL TO THIS GIFT OF LIFE
Elisa hides her pregnancy after divorcing small-town physician Doctor Valério. But secrets refuse to stay buried. In Cape Verde, Barbara, now married to Valério's brother, uncovers the truth. Torn between two women, João Valério turns to religion for answers. His brother, a Muslim scholar and master Hafiz, guides him toward redemption. A romantic journey across the Sahara leads João to remarry Elisa in the Muslim tradition. Their infant daughter, Sukra, Creole for sugar, becomes the compass in a story of love, loyalty, and tradition. But one question remains: will João take a second wife.
