An Unjust Death - E-book - ePub

Luke has had more than his fair share of bad luck. Orphaned at a young age and later due to a misunderstanding expelled from his missionary foster family, he is trying to make his own way as a native policeman in rapidly changing colonial New Zealand. On board ship returning from prisoner escort duties to van Diemen's land he is wrongfully accused of murdering his former foster sister's husband. The jury accepts the lies of his European accuser, and he is found guilty and sentenced to death.
With only a few days left before his public execution will he be able to escape the hangman and find a way to clear his name, take revenge on his false accuser, and find happiness with the young woman he loves?
