Greed, war and corruption had almost destroyed the once-revered Orebegi tribe, and now it seemed that the strain of two years drought was to deliver the final blow. In a last-ditch effort to save what little he has left and to protect his family, Mat - grandson & heir to the legendary Chief 'Night-Eyes' Orebegi - sets out to see his Uncle Tazo, his hopes resting on a new business venture. When Tazo is arrested for murder, Mat has to learn quickly and work as never before as he is thrown into a position that tests his ability and ingenuity to their limits. As he does so, he and his family slowly become more and more embroiled in a evil web of intrigue that brings the past back to haunt him. Will he be able to solve the murder and bring about his Uncle's release? Will he finally be avenged for the murder of his ancestors? Everything is at stake, and Mat must prove himself worthy if he is to settle the past, restore the family honour, and earn the title of the new 'Chief Night Eyes'
