A young Winston Churchill embarks on a dangerous treasure hunt in the wilds of central Africa in this novel of rollicking action and adventure.

A prisoner during the Boer War, Winston Churchill is offered a secret deal for freedom by African commander Louis Botha: Winston must seek out and protect the greatest secret of the dark continent, a fabulous Nubian treasure known only as Mapungubwe Hill.

Joined by Botha’s aide, Zeila, Winston races against a rogue member of the British royal family, Lord Sterne, who is also after the treasure—and narrowly escapes being entombed.

Decades later, in the middle of a raging World War II, Winston and his special agent struggle to unlock Mapungubwe’s secrets once again before German forces, lead by Nazi-sympathizer Lord Sterne, can overwhelm and capture it. And with the threat of Nubian warriors taking matters into their own hands, Winston’s secret tryst with Zeila may come back to ruin everything. . . .

“Here is Winston Churchill, before he became a world leader, in a ripping good tale of quest, romance, thrill and intrigue that moves smartly from the Boer War to World War II, from the halls of power in London to the hills of danger in Africa, and back again.” —Neal Burdick, author of Adirondack Reflections
