********************************************************************************************
1828: Matthew Hervey of the 6th Light Dragoons is urgently summoned
to the Cape Colony when he learns that the Zulu warrior King Shaka
is about to wage war. Soon Hervey, his old friend Eyre Somervile
and their escort of dragoons and mounted rifles are riding north.
When they arrive at Shaka's kraal, it quickly becomes apparent that
he has slaughtered thousands of his subjects - warriors and women
alike. When Shaka is killed by his own people, and the region
plunged into civil war, Hervey and his men find themselves in the
midst of terrible danger. Yet worse is to come. Separated from his
troop, Hervey must lead Shaka's queen across a hostile land where
sanctuary has never seemed further away ...
