From Veldt Camp Fires

“If you want wealth, I believe I can put it in your way,” says an English hunter beside a veldt campfire. His secret lies along a river so little known that few have even reached its banks.

In late-19th-century South Africa, transport riders carry tales as far as their ox-waggons can travel. One evening, a rescued hunter named Mowbray tells a fellow rider of the vast interior, his fearless tracker Klaas, and a hidden valley near the Orange River where diamonds may lie waiting. But sheer mountain walls guard the river’s course, and the country beyond is remote, perilous and scarcely explored. Mowbray believes he knows a way in. What will he find where almost no one has dared to go?
