18. PREDATORS FROM THE EAST – OLOFF THE PIRATE SERIES

Prepare for a thrilling high-seas adventure where clashing swords, cunning strategies, and a touch of forbidden romance collide. In the early days of colonial expansion, Prince Mahara Jaman Malik of Zanzibar sets his sights on a lucrative prize. It is the unsuspecting settlements along the South African coast. With a fleet of six sleek, lightning-fast ships, he plans to disrupt the established slave trade by flooding the market with educated and physically superior European captives.

But Malik’s ambition clashes with the formidable Captain Oloff van Wagenaar, a former pirate now seeking a peaceful life for himself and his crew along the Kars river. When Malik’s forces descend upon Oloff’s settlement, Wagenaarsrust, kidnapping the women and children, Oloff is forced to confront his past and embark on a desperate chase. As Oloff pursues the fleeing fleet, he finds himself embroiled in a deadly game of cat and mouse. Malik proves to be a worthy adversary, and Oloff must use all his skills and cunning to outwit the prince and rescue the captives. The conflict is further complicated by the arrival of Gerhard Rheedert, a pompous Deputy Governor with a personal vendetta against Oloff, whose interference threatens to doom them all.

Amidst the chaos of naval battles and daring rescues, a spark of forbidden attraction ignites between Oloff and the spirited Jandien, a former pirate’s daughter held captive by Malik. Their connection adds another layer of danger to Oloff’s mission, as a jealous rival seeks to claim Jandien for himself, turning the rescue operation into a personal battle for survival and love. Can Oloff overcome the treacherous currents of greed, hatred, and desire to reclaim his people, or will he fall prey to the Predators from the East?
