The definitive biography of Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), the founder of homeopathy, a system of healing which revolutionised medicine and now in the 21st century is receiving more support than at any time in the last century. It is a story of one man's fight against the cruelty, inhumanity and quackery of the medical practice of his day, and his pioneering efforts in the face of persecution, prejudice and bigotry to introduce a safe, compassionate and effective alternative therapy. Set against a backdrop of the tumultuous political and social events of Samuel Hahnemann's time, it vividly traces the development of homeopathy and his family's struggle for survival in the face of war, poverty, pestilence and persecution.

Colin Hallstead, his cousins and their wives set out to trek across the Australian bushlands to find the famed rich lands up on a plateau near the mysterious Mt Lindsay, known to the Aboriginal people as the Spirit Mountain. A ragtag group of people, dispossessed by rich landowners, all they want is a chance to make their own lives and live them out in peace and tranquillity in these mountains rich with timber and lush with greenery. On the way they meet Gidabul, a member of the Bundjalung clan of Aboriginals, now an outcast for breaking tribal law. He joins up with them and assists the Hallstead group through lands occupied by often antagonistic Aboriginals, who do not believe that white people should be coming to settle on their lands, nor treading through their sacred spaces. But, will the Hallstead party ever get to the plateau near Spirit Mountain? If they do, how will they get on with their Aboriginal neighbours? Do they have the indomitable will needed to survive in this harsh, unchartered land, all alone with only their wits?

John Bartlett, Paul, Richard, and Jake were old friends and ex-Army mates. They had all ended up in the Special Forces Commando unit and worked in Afghanistan. Over the years they had lost contact with John Siddle, their superior officer. He had gone on to become a success in banking. The other four maintained their close friendship. John Siddle called unexpectedly to ask John Bartlett if they could meet for lunch. At that event, Siddle disclosed something horrific to Bartlett and asked him if he could do something about it. This throws the team of friends into a moral dilemma; they know they owe their ex-commander a great deal. The tale takes an unusual turn with a bombshell ending that could never be foreseen by the four Special Forces friends.
