Half of One Thing

Zirk van den Berg

Large Paperback

 

Gideon Lancaster, a New Zealander fighting for the British, infiltrates a Boer commando. He soon becomes entangled in confusing loyalties when he gets to know the Boer soldiers better and, on top of that, falls in love with Esther Calitz, a wayward Boer girl who demands his allegiance above all others. Between Esther and Commander Jacob Eksteen, his taciturn rival in love and a man of black-and-white principles, he finds his way with great difficulty. The conflicting demands of fidelity and love drive him to rashness. He seized the chance of a big gamble when a British battalion was mobilized to bring the war to a resounding end. Halfway One Thing is an immersive reading experience, a love story and war adventure penned down by an experienced, subtle writer's hand.
