Stretching from the Nile Valley in Sudan to England and Scotland and traversing decades, "The Depth of Mischief" tells individuals' stories. A robust male character is everyone's friend but protective of his mother. It is hard to separate him from his friend a girl almost of similar age with the same university education.
Their travels took them to friends who escaped life turmoil, but they were never far from their families. A compromising mother who wanted her daughter to become a hairdresser and gave her last savings to set her in a competitive industry. She rose in prominence and fought against her male friend who was jealous of her success.
