“I have certainly known more men destroyed by
the desire to have a wife and child and keep them in comfort than I have seen
destroyed by drink...”
(William Butler Yeats, Diary,
1909)
Jakob Klein, a liberal-minded Jew
from Bavaria , has been living in the small
town of Rouxville in the Orange Free State for well over a decade.
He will try anything to support
his wife and family. His questionable business ethics often cause him to sail
close to the wind. Now, he has sailed far too close, and his life has
capsized. His dubious dealings have lost
him his home and livelihood. His young family have had to leave him to seek
refuge with relatives in the Cape
Colony .
Now, he is in jail, awaiting
transfer to Bloemfontein ,
where the serious case against him is to be heard by the highest court in the
land. With only his guards for company, he has plenty of time to wonder what
sort of future fate holds for him and whether he will ever see his family
again.
Read Jakob's story, a tale of
debt and deception, in Rogue of Rouxville,
Adam Yamey’s second historical novel. It is an adventure set mostly in the
wilds of what was later to become the Union of South Africa.
