Issues of land grabbing and exploitation form the tapestry against which the fractured personal lives and relationships of Country Queen's main characters play out. The fight for land becomes a fight for redemption and truth. The characters have to face the consequences of their own choices. The fictional story carries many elements of truth that speak to a range of issues such as family disputes, land ownership and exploitation that affect millions of people in Africa and worldwide.
