Fiji in the 1860s … Strong-willed and adventurous Kate Denison arrives in Fiji with her missionary father, revelling in the opportunity to build a new life far from the constraints of Victorian London. She finds herself in the world of Jason Cotterell, a planter from New England who came to Fiji to escape intolerance, determined to live in harmony with his Fijian neighbours. As political tensions build, Jason is reluctantly thrust into the role of leader and he clashes with Kate’s brother Toby — a man of few scruples who is unwilling to resist the islands intoxicating freedoms. Can Kate and Jason create their own South Pacific paradise amidst both European and Fijian political turmoil and unrest? In his third novel Robert Campbell skilfully weaves love, war and intrigue into the real-life fabric of events that led to Fiji becoming a British Crown colony in 1874
Robert Campbell (born Wanganui NZ 1934 - died Malvern UK 1992) attended Napier Boys High and graduated MA (History) from Canterbury University. Inspired by an uncle with a banana plantation in Fiji, he joined the British Colonial Service and was posted to Fiji as a District Officer in 1956. He worked on agricultural development projects and became District Commissioner in Vanua Levu in 1969, retiring just prior to Fiji gaining independence. Robert later worked in Yorkshire, the Gilbert Islands (Kiribati), and with a firm of international natural resource consultants. Under the name Robert Staveley he wrote two other historical romances: A Treasonable Affair 1972 and Shame the Devil 1974.
