- Summary
- Strong-willed and adventurous Kate Denison arrives in Fiji with her missionary father, revelling in the opportunity to build a new life far from the constraints of Victorian London. She finds herself in the world of Jason Cotterell, a planter from New England who came to Fiji to escape intolerance, determined to live in harmony with his Fijian neighbours. As political tensions build, Jason is reluctantly thrust into the role of leader and he clashes with Kate's brother Toby - a man of few scruples who is unwilling to resist the islands' intoxicating freedoms. Can Kate and Jason create their own South Pacific paradise amidst both European and Fijian political turmoil and unrest?
