Stars over Sarawak

About this work

There was an old tribal saying, Carl Denver told Roanna, after circumstances had caused her to spend a month with him in the jungle, that if a person saves another's life three times then he can claim that person as his property. Carl had saved her life three times, but although she loved him Roanna feared marriage to a man as hard and unfeeling as the toughened boss of an oil company in Sarawak, domain of the onetime famous White Rajahs. This story of two people thrown together in the primitive jungle of Borneo, with its mysteries and its dangers, and where the one-time head-hunters still often lived by the poison dart, makes it one of the most stirring and exciting this author has eves written.
