In 1886 when gold was discovered in the Transvaal, the peaceful farming existence of the Afrikaners (descendants of the Dutch settlers formerly called "Boers") was forever shattered. The setting of Barry Cohen's fact-based novel, Let the Storm Burst, is South Africa at the turn of the (20th) century, as thousands of alien fortune-seekers made their way to the gold fields in the quest for adventure, action, and affluence. Into this fact-based explosive atmosphere comes handsome Francois du Plessis, born to an English mother and Afrikaans father, attempting to steer a path based on his morals and conscience, while being manipulated by international forces beyond his control. The raw scenic beauty of Africa and its wildlife is vividly captured and are indigenous to this exciting story of a group of people caught between the wealth and insensitivity of Britain and the Boers fighting for control of the gold fields
