résumé The story begins in 1629, when the pride of the Dutch East India Company, the Batavia, is<br/>on its maiden voyage en route from Amsterdam to the Dutch East Indies, laden down with<br/>the greatest treasure to leave Holland. The magnificent ship is already boiling over with a<br/>mutinous plot that is just about to break into the open when, just off the coast of Western<br/>Australia, it strikes an unseen reef in the middle of the night. While Commandeur Francisco<br/>Pelsaert decides to take the long-boat across 2000 miles of open sea for help, his second-in-<br/>command Jeronimus Cornelisz takes over, quickly deciding that 250 people on a small<br/>island is unwieldy for the small number of supplies they have. Quietly, he puts forward a<br/>plan to 40 odd mutineers how they could save themselves, kill most of the rest and spare<br/>only a half-dozen or so women, including his personal fancy, Lucretia Jansz - one of the<br/>noted beauties of Holland - to service their sexual needs. A reign of terror begins, countered<br/>only by a previously anonymous soldier Wiebbe Hayes, who begins to gather to him those<br/>are prepared to do what it takes to survive...
