Intending to spend two years at Trafalgar Station, he stays fifteen, his soul captured by the harsh but haunting country of Kimberley. Try as he might, he can't seem to escape its clutches, even though it killed his father and threatens also to bring him down. He is held there by the dependence of the people, black and white, and the memory of a tragic love affair that still haunts him. In the 1880s, old Stanley Rolt had pioneered the country with cattle and made a fortune. To the outside world he had become a knighted tycoon, running a vast empire that stretched across the territories. But the land had killed his son and looked as though it was about to crush his grandson, young Stan.
