About this listen
In the lush, oppressive heat of colonial Java, nothing is as it seems. Behind the polished rituals of Dutch colonial life, a quiet unraveling begins. Governor Van Oudijck believes in order, reason, and control. But something else, something older and more powerful, is working against him.
As social tensions rise and his family begins to fall apart, Van Oudijck finds himself at odds not just with those around him, but with an unseen force that defies explanation.
The Hidden Force is a sharp, unsettling novel about power, pride, and the invisible threads that shape a crumbling empire. Written in 1900, this haunting story explores the clash between Western arrogance and the spiritual reality of the East.
For listeners who appreciate layered literary fiction, political undercurrents, and psychological suspense set in colonial environments.
