A German officer disgraced. An American heiress who believed in him. Salvaging his honour by building a castle at the end of the world in an era when there was no quarrel between the people of America and Germany. Creating German architecture in a colony of nothing was awe-inspiring to Von Wolf and his American wife. From the diplomatic salons and high society of Europe to the deserts and endless blue skies of South West Africa, their adventurous love was the only constant. A sweeping saga of passion, achievement and happiness. In an indifferent world looking for an excuse to go to war.
