Gems, Love, Artists and a Golden LionJeweller Jonty Evans' passion for gems takes him to Africa at a volatile time in the 1880s. He finds the diamonds he's looking for and gets given a lion cub. Later, Jon is held hostage and sees things he wishes he hadn't. His experiences in the Transvaal plunge him into questioning everything he knows of life. Soon nightmares haunt him. On return home, he nearly messes up his love life before it even starts, yet they marry weeks after he returns. He struggles to settle, and his wife's father, Luke Lockley from Parramatta, takes him in hand and points him to those who can help. He meets up with an artist, and through his friendship, he begins to find some peace and rediscover his faith. He learns what deep prayer is and how to meditate. He's recalled to Africa as a liaison and his amazing lion, Chimbu, who returned to the wild, saves the life of his security detail. His life journey introduces him to the most amazing Heidelberg artists, politicians, rebels, scapegoat soldiers, like Harry Morant.Can Jonty bury past and regain the peace he's lost?
