The Battle
Hardy Bernard
Here, the author brings to life a story of loyalty, betrayal, and survival, moving from the grand homes of Liverpool to the blood-soaked fields of Southern Africa.
Christopher Devlin, a wealthy trader, raises his daughters and a mysterious boy called Trinket, even as his ships sail into dangerous waters. Beyond the seas, King Shaka’s warriors wage relentless war, and Chief Mzilikazi struggles to lead his people through treachery and loss.
Twelve years later, as Devlin is celebrated for his philanthropy, one quiet act changes everything. Trinket, now a man, reveals himself as Mzilikazi, son of a chief, determined to end enslavement and reclaim his rightful name.
The Battle is a sweeping tale of empire and resistance, where fate, courage, and vengeance collide.
