In the Heat of the Day by Michael Anthony is a tale set in Trinidad in 1903, revolving around themes of love, revenge, and racial tension. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a tragic episode in Trinidad's history. Eva, driven by growing anger at the mistreatment of her people under colonial rule, devises a desperate plan. As the government prepares to pass oppressive legislation, and with limited time left, the people begin expressing their opposition, hopeful for a victorious outcome despite uncertainties about when that victory will come.
