Synopsis

Tired of constant scraps with the English, by 1837 the Dutch settlers in South Africa had resolved to trek north into the interior. Orphaned Laura Conway is living with her Dutch stepmother whom she dearly loves, so it seems natural that she should accompany her and her people on the Great Trek. Paul Venter, leader of their small band of trekkers, is resolutely opposed to Laura's presence, for he can never forget what the English have done to his people. But how can Laura, the daughter of an English captain, overcome his blind hostility? Especially when she is uncertain if her own feelings for Paul are for an enemy or a friend.
