She disappeared with another man.

Now her desperate letter reveals a deadly trap.

In the untamed Transvaal Lowveld, a rugged frontier simmering with gold fever, farmer Hein Brandis is haunted by one thing. The woman he loves, Roelien, has been lured away by the smooth-talking Nic Beetge. His heartache turns to ice-cold dread when a desperate, cryptic letter arrives. In it, Roelien confesses she is married and trapped in a shameful secret, begging her father not to come for her, warning that the worst is yet to happen.

When Hein rides out to find answers, he is plunged into a firestorm of violence. He discovers Beetge is no mere rival, but the leader of a ruthless gang of cattle thieves leaving a trail of bodies in their wake, including Roelien’s own father. The brutal chase across the mountains reveals a conspiracy of smuggled diamonds and murder that reaches the highest powers in Barberton. Now, Roelien is a prisoner, a pawn in their deadly game because she knows too much.

This relentless historical action-adventure thriller is packed with gunfights, desperate chases, and shocking betrayals that will keep you guessing until the final, explosive page. Perfect for fans of classic westerns and gripping mystery.
