Synopsis
In 1628, the Dutch East India Company's flagship, the Batavia, set sail for Java laden with treasure. Aboard was Jeronimus Corneliszoon, a disgraced man whose heretical ideas sparked a mutiny. When the ship wrecked on a remote island, the survivors found themselves at the mercy of Jeronimus and his followers, leading to a harrowing struggle for survival against treachery and murder.
