Overview: In 1895 the British Empire stands at its zenith, surrounded by jealous rivals. Cecil Rhodes, the Cape Colony Prime Minister, plots an audacious coup – to annex the Boer South African Republic, where nearly half of the world’s gold lies.
Peter Leroux learns that his father’s death was not an accident. His investigations draw him reluctantly into Rhodes’s scheme. Leroux knows too much, but not enough. An attempt is made on his life, and his enquiries run into a dead end. Someone is conspiring to thwart Rhodes and seize power in the Transvaal. As the world teeters unknowingly on the brink of war, Leroux must stop his father’s killers before it is too late. In gold rush Johannesburg, nobody is innocent.
Cecil Rhodes’s attempt to annex the South African Republic, known as the Jameson Raid, ended in a fiasco.
To this day, no one really knows why…
