Description
The long-awaited debut novel from Australian author Foster Burton
Southern Queensland, 1888: Squatter Jack Thomas has long dreamed of riches: of a grand house full of servants, and a life of comfort and luxury. So when he finds a nugget of gold on land they don't yet own, he is faced with a difficult choice: listen to his older brother Bill, and forget he ever found it? Or follow his heart and sell it... risking everything they hold dear.
Following his heart, Jack heads for the young colony of Brisbane; into the waiting jaws of the city's elite, and the invisible tentacles of the government. He pays a terrible price for his impulsiveness and greed, leaving the city destitute and with a second agonising choice: does he learn from his mistakes and start the slow journey to rebuilding? Or seek revenge against the faceless men responsible.
