Mark
of the Leopard
From the author of Chameleon comes this historical
fiction novel, Mark of the Leopard, the second in the African history series,
a story of romance, mystery, danger and betrayal set against a backdrop of
wild lands and raging seas.
In 1703 Sabrina Barrington and her
children are shipwrecked and presumed drowned off the Cape of Good Hope, the
site of the present-day city of Cape Town. Fourteen years later, an
investigator tells Sabrina’s brother, Lucien Castle, that one of his sister’s
children has been seen on the island of Madagascar, off Africa’s east coast. It
is imperative to return the youngster to England before his twenty-fifth
birthday, otherwise his grandfather, the corrupt and detested Robert
Barrington, will usurp his rightful inheritance. Castle is the only one who can
confirm the young man is not an impostor. In order to do this he must leave the
comfort of Amsterdam in Holland and embark on a journey into the unknown.
Will Castle be able to
overcome his demons and find his nephew in time? Or will he succumb to the
perils that beset his epic expedition every step of the way?
In a voyage that takes
them from the untamed island of Madagascar to the storm-tossed Dutch outpost at
the Cape of Good Hope, Castle and his companion must face innumerable dangers
and battle not only rival investigators but also each other.
