Description

Justice is not enough. Aotearoa demands utu. Matiu Douglas is used to his father Tama's job as a defence lawyer creating stress, but when Tama takes on a case in magical Aotearoa - the defence of Mat's old enemy Donna Kyle - family tensions run high. But that is only the beginning of Mat's worries. A jail - break becomes a man - hunt, and strange new alliances must be forged if justice is to be served. From the streets of early Auckland to wild and lawless Kororareka, the 'Hell - hole of the Pacific', and on to the trackless ocean, the lines between hunter and hunted will blur and dissolve. Old friendships and new loves will be tempered and tested. In the end, a price must be paid: good for good, and ill for ill.
