description: A leader of the Young Ireland rebellion of 1848 Robert Devereux is an Irish gentleman who is prepared to hazard a life of privilege in the fight for his country's freedom. Transported to Van Diemen's Land as a political prisoner he enters a life that greatly changes him falling in love with a young Irish convict woman. Through Kathleen O'Rahilly he comes to know the people he's long romanticised; but his cause and the life he has lost will not let him go.
