Sue Eckstein's dramatisation of her own novel, set in West Africa.
A poem by WB Yeats holds the key to an unexpected love affair for a young British diplomat on his first overseas posting. As Daniel Maddison wanders the street markets of a town in West Africa, he sees a woman he knew five years before when he was a student at Oxford. But when he approaches her, she denies ever knowing him.
