Weep the Righteous Warrior

THE CAPE COLONY, 19TH CENTURY, SOUTHERN AFRICA. For over two decades under the oppression of the British Empire, the Xhosa clans have languished on overcrowded barren land with no meaningful future in sight. The old chiefs come under pressure from their sons to call for war once again with the old foe the Mfengu clan after they insult a Xhosa chieftain, but fighting the Mfengu means fighting the Imperial British Army. Jamie Fyvie, Iain McColl, their families and friends come under attack from an unknown assailant. The arrival of a British secret service agent signals the return of their old adversary, the ELOS. They want the diamond mines and revenge on Fyvie and McColl. Their businesses and homes in danger, Jamie and Iain once again take the fight to the enemy and try to stay ahead of the ELOS assassins across an explosive Eastern Cape frontier, and the semi-desert of Bushman's Land in the Northern cape. They will have to stop the ELOS at the root of their power in Freetown, Sierra Leone and in London. On the journey north Iain's daughter and Jamie's son, two cousins, cause a family problem when they fall in love. The ELOS intend to unleash a deadly disease on the Kimberley diamond miners, intent on taking over the mining companies. They have also infiltrated the Cape Colony government and now have the power to control the British Army and the colonial militia forces. A devious deception eventually lures the sons of the old chiefs into conflict. The ELOS are back to cause chaos once again giving the Imperial British Army the excuse to ride out along the frontier to inflict death and destruction in a final conflict.
