Chapter 39, Put a Collar on Me. To Colonel Begg's and all the awaiting miners' satisfaction, Barabal is finally on stage, and the bidding for the young Scottish beauty gets under way. From time to time it falters, but soon the heavyweights - and some surprising players - weigh in. Lorcan arrives to witness the results of his failed attempt to save her, but clearly he has a plan... of some sort.

Chapter 38, Fresh from the South Seas. Barabal is now in the clutches of Colonel Begg's men, being dragged back to the Opera House after her failed escape. She is in no mood to give up, however, as the Colonel and his men are about to find out. The resulting delays do not sit well with the packed house now all anxious to see the one who is without doubt every man’s hope, every boy’s imaginary heaven, the answer to every prayer they ever uttered and meant.
