The winter of 1863 finds the settlement of Auckland living in fear of Maori Rebels. Sir George Grey England's pro-consul has been sent out to handle these difficulties. Dr Wake, an Auckland Surgeon, and his daughter Cecily meet a young Englishman named Kenneth Gordon and the two young people become friends. When the Waikato war gets worse Gordon joints Von Tempsky's Corps of Forest Rangers.
