However, despite their poster-like appearance, the reality was far from ideal, as Mercy's Matabele tribe was being brutally massacred by Mugabe's forces. Years later, Robyn embarked on a perilous journey to uncover the truth about her friend's disappearance, facing numerous challenges and shocking revelations along the way.
