JAVA LOST, A Child Imprisoned, Part II, Eighteen Inches on a Mattress:
As a tomboy and daughter of Lady Emilie, life growing up on the coffee and rubber plantation was heaven for Jannie. She had many adventures that she relished. But there was unrest spreading around the world that would soon land on her doorstep, changing her tropical paradise into a dark world where her family is torn apart. World War II was well under way, yet life on Java, Indonesia remained isolated and separate. Until, that is, the Japanese military invaded the island.

Here the Dutch who once owned and managed plantations and ran local governments suddenly became the oppressed and were mercilessly imprisoned. Not even their Nobility could spare them now.
