I am currently trying to get up the strength to get a load of soil for the garden. Getting it is easy, it’s the unloading that has been stopping me for over a month. All that shoveling out of the back of the pickup truck. ERG. It’s a nice day today, but it’s going to rain next week which would make the job ten times harder. (heavy sigh) Off I go.

In Kinabalu’s Shadow
by Steve Morris
Genre: History | War
FREE for a limited time
This is a work of fiction woven around some of the events that actually happened in British North Borneo (now Sabah, Malaysia) before and during the Second World War.
A powerful tale of love, violence and incredible bravery that also gives a rare and fascinating insight into the disparate cultures found in this small British colony.
It is 1938 and newly married Australian Tom Field takes his young bride Mary to live on the copra plantation he manages near the small town of Kudat. Here she meets the stuffy colonial British, the friendly Chinese shopkeepers and the proud and colourful indigenous people who live in traditional longhouses.
Soon after the outbreak of war in Europe they return to Australia for the birth of their second child. While they are away Japan invades Singapore and then overruns Borneo virtually unopposed. The Europeans are herded into internment camps and the Australian and British forces captured in Singapore are taken to Borneo and subjected to inhumane treatment in the POW camps in Kuching and Sandakan.
Tom is recruited to help the newly formed SRD (based on the British Special Overseas Executive) and returns to Borneo to work covertly behind the lines. He contacts his head-hunter friends and they embark on a series of audacious missions against the hated invaders. After a close personal encounter with the enemy he eventually leads his fierce band of warriors to assist the Australian 9th Division in the liberation of his beloved adopted country.
