The eighteenth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country made of blood, passion, and dreams.
Despite resistance from the native Maoris and Hauhaus, the settlers find themselves in a war between cultures.
The settlers try to claim the bold frontier of New Zealand, but face opposition from two native tribes. The journey will be dangerous, and the consequences bloody. It is a matter of perishment or prevalence. Loyalty will be tested, love will fade, men will fall, but neither of the parties will back down without a fight.
