"Troubles" in South Africa force Bam and Margaret to go into hiding in the village of their servant, July. World reverses on them; now they are dependent, lack basic knowledge of their environment, are weak. It took me a bit of time to get in the flow, but I'm in it now and am greatly enjoying the book.
Excellent start . . . orphaned girl with a knack for chess, taught by janitor, harsh orphanage despite its courtly look.
