Details

Beautifully lyrical and poetic, Fletcher's work shows him at the height of his dramatic power in this thrilling adventure. Partly based on true events, five men compete for the hand of Princess Quisara on the Indonesian island of Tidore. She vows to marry the man who can free her brother, who has been imprisoned by the villainous governor of Ternata. But she soon faces a conflict of faith and terrible moral dilemma as her idealism and beliefs are challenged beyond her expectations.
