About This Book

A lord who once lived among apes faces renewed peril when a vengeful enemy escapes custody and arranges the kidnapping of his infant son with the aid of a servant. He pursues the captors across the sea to a deserted island, where survival tests and jungle combats with a fearsome big cat, a treacherous ship's crew, and shifting local alliances complicate any straightforward rescue. The narrative alternates action-driven pursuit, episodes of captivity and cunning countermeasures, and reflections on loyalty, primal law, and the resourcefulness required to reclaim family and freedom.
