About This Book

A first-person narrator posing as a prospector to inspect a mining concession in the Balkan hills rescues a young woman whose horse is shot while she flees pursuers. That dramatic opening unfolds into a fast-moving adventure that blends rough-field survival, personal loyalties, and romantic involvement with broader political and military entanglements. The narrative moves through escapes, duels, strategic camp maneuvers, declarations of conflict, and plans of defence, testing characters’ courage, resolve, and resourcefulness as alliances shift and private motives collide with public dangers.
