Cannibals' Gold
()
About this ebook
Two gold prospectors meet up to become firm friends on the goldfields of far north Queensland's Palmer River. Braving the hardships of the remote goldfields and attacks from the tribes of fierce cannibalistic Aborigines who slaughter large numbers of both European and Chinese gold diggers to augment their diet, the two gold diggers latch onto a novel but dangerous and somewhat illegal method of acquiring a massive fortune in the precious yellow metal. Coming to the attention of the Queensland Police contingent, they barely escape capture before meeting with disaster and romance which consequently alters their future plans.
