A blood feud.

A ruthless patriarch.

A secret hidden in the mountains.

The untamed Transvaal Lowveld, 1886. Special Agent Len van Staden arrives on a routine mission to survey a path for the new railway. But in the isolated town of Waterval, he finds a community suffocating under the iron fist of the ruthless patriarch Paul Bakkes. Here, justice is a commodity, and anyone who threatens Bakkes’s power is silenced by a conveniently stray bullet or a tragic “accident.”

When Len uncovers a conspiracy of sabotage and murder meant to keep the region in the dark ages, the mission becomes deeply personal. The woman he loves is unknowingly trapped in the enemy’s grasp, and the only path to the truth leads through a hidden valley of violent outlaws and a secret mountain pass. Failure means not only the death of a nation’s dream, but his own too.

This is an explosive mix of classic action-adventure, gripping western mystery, and a high-stakes historical thriller. Perfect for fans of Wilbur Smith and Louis L’Amour, this epic tale of betrayal, revenge, and frontier justice will keep you turning the pages late into the night.
