The Other Princess by Denny S. Bryce

One of the “treasures” Queen Victoria acquired from her vast empire was her African goddaughter, Sarah Forbes Bonetta. Sarah was a princess whose family was massacred by a rival tribe. They enslaved her for years until an English sea captain rescued her, changed her name from Aina to Sarah Forbes (his surname) Bonetta (the name of his ship) and presented her to the Queen as a gift.
