Leaving late nineteenth century New England for a sojourn in Japan, Josh soon finds himself in the Hermit Kingdom-Korea. Coming of age is always filled with trial and tribulation. For Josh Gillet, intense life experiences are forged in an ancient land that has become the political chessboard for imperialist powers-amid a bold Protestant missionary movement and Anglo merchants with hopes of wealth. Josh quickly learns that high adventure, opportunity, and a budding romance come at a price as cultures collide.
