At the start of the novel, the characters are aboard a traditional Chinese vessel, the junco, as they navigate the Australian coastline in April 1850.

The opening establishes a vivid sense of the setting, introducing key characters, their mission, and the ominous foreshadowing of conflict that drives the narrative forward.
