The Children of the Rush: Book 3 - James Russell

The third book in James Russell's Children of the Rush series.
 
Atarangi, Michael, and Siu have crossed the Southern Alps and settled in Hokitika just as a new gold rush takes a firm grip of the town. There they’d hoped to carve out a new life in peace.
But they’re about to get the shock of their young lives.
When a ship crosses the notorious Hokitika Bar there are some unwelcome visitors aboard, and they come with wicked intentions.
The children are totally on their own, powerless against the forces of evil. Or are they?

“Excitement, adventure, action, friendship – a perfect mix of what you look for in a great story. Even better that it’s set in historic New Zealand!”
