Produktbeschreibung

Historical Fiction. In a literary masterpiece, Peter Long expertly crafts an alternate reality for an Australian legend amidst a love letter to the Australian landscape.

The Kelly Gang reign was believed to have come to a bloody end following a blazing gunfight at the Glenrowan Inn Siege in June 1880. Ned Kelly survived to be hung later, and Dan Kelly, Joe Byrne and Steve Hart were believed to have perished in the fire.

Rumours erupted that Dan and Steve had survived and were whisked out of the district by family and supporters.

Over time, sightings and reports of their adventures have grown into legend.

This is a fictional account of the legend, Steve's life, and the remarkable mateship he and Dan shared during much of it. Follow Steve as he lives on in an exciting life adventuring across two continents and participates in many epic events that impacted Australia's development.

Hunted? What could the future hold for a man who faces so much danger and suffers unimaginable privations?

Hero? Is there any greater love than to be willing to lay down your life for your friend?

What transpires when said friend sees a different future for the two mates will have you on the edge of your seat.
