It is 1867 and young English immigrants Ethan and Amy Melville find themselves shipwrecked on the remote and desolate coast of New Zealand. Fearful that their mother has drowned, they decided to search for their father who is somewhere in the South Island. Danger is everywhere: settlers and local Maori are fighting over land, and lawlessness abounds. Totally unprepared for life in the wild, Ethan and Amy team up with two young strangers. But can they trust Meg, a petty thief, or Tama, an escaped Maori slave? Pinned to Amy's clothing is the only thing of value the Melville family have left - a beautiful diamond brooch. But Amy's brooch has not gone unnoticed - and some people will do anything to get their hands on the treasure. A riveting drama about an unlikely band of young people thrown together during the chaos of the New Zealand Wars.
