Synopsis

In 1887, a tyrannical father exiles his seventeen-year-old son from England. Against a backdrop of greed, the brewing Boer War and friendship stronger than blood, Sebastian Brigandshaw reacts with a desperate plan...

If it fails, he will go to trial and face execution. Sebastian left more behind than England though. He was also denied contact with Emily, his childhood sweetheart. In Africa, he has found another land to claim his heart, one that pulses with opportunity and where he can throw himself into new challenges. But there is only one Emily, and for her he gambles everything.

Spanning continents, war, political struggles, secrets, and a smouldering landscape beneath an infinite sky, Echoes from the Past is a tour-de-force of rich historical detail, the human heart and the forging of a new life in a harsh but rewarding land.

And gut-wrenching choices...

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Exiled... his sweetheart lost... one man will risk everything!

The year is 1887. Sebastian Brigandshaw is stolen away from his lover, Emily, an impoverished Baronet’s daughter, and forced across the sea in order to allow his older brother to take Emily’s hand instead. Cast into the wild and unknown colonies of Southern Africa, Sebastian becomes one of the first white elephant hunters in the land of the Zulu King, Lobengula. There he will see the bloodiest faces of man as loyalty and friendship are divided with the Second Anglo-Boer War.

ECHOES FROM THE PAST is the first book in Peter Rimmer’s Brigandshaw Chronicles, a historical family saga. If you like Ken Follett, Alex Haley, and Wilbur Smith, then you'll love the Chronicles that combines all of their best traits in a magnificent tale of romance, war, and survival.

Buy this book to start reading Sebastian Brigandshaw’s tale in his new and exciting world of Southern Africa!
