Sasha is a historical novel, set in an insulated community, Sigatoo Isle, Bahamas, exploring the dangers of acculturation, particularly intra-matrimony, which can have lasting and rapacious effects on its population.Hannah Watts, a wilful, young woman dealing with multiple sclerosis, is committed to lifting the black veil off the notorious practice of marriages among first cousins in her town and her island.Captivating, confronting, and evocative novel, Sasha offers a unique addition to the genre in its character-driven emotional basis while remaining a thought-provoking read with a contemporary approach. Hannah's quest to improve her homeland is enthralling, written with a compelling honesty well-paced against the dramatic, at times, heart-breaking twists and turns.This works to combine a deep emotional effect with a compulsion that drags the reader to the edge of their seat beyond the final dramatic moments
