'Winner of the best unpublished manuscript category of the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize: a fast-paced adventure story set in the Australian outback. 1853, Victoria. Five bushrangers raid a homestead. When they ride away, nineteen-year-old Toby O'Rourke's parents lay dead at his feet. Forced into adulthood, he and his brother Paddy will seek to restore the family fortunes and outwit not only the rich businessman who conspired to rob them of their birth right, but the vicious men who murdered their family.'
