- An adventure western set in New Zealand at the time of the gold rush in 1850.
  Young Charlotte Lockton has settled in Australia with her wealthy husband, David. But her life’s dreams are shattered when he’s murdered at their farm, and her baby son is kidnapped. A year after paying a ransom, she decides to track him down, and so begins her journey through wilds of an untamed New Zealand, at the beginning of the Gold Rush. She comes into contact with Villains, Suffragettes, Hustlers, Chinese Mystics and native Maori Warriors. She joins a convoy of Whores, Dancers, and Ex-cons heading for the rough mining community of Goldtown. There she meets Joshua McCullen, the owner of the town, a man who is key to uncovering the truth behind the disappearance of her son, forcing her to fight to the death for what she holds most dear.
