Summary

Set in Lancashire and Western Australia in the 1860s, Anna Jacobs' entrancing new saga follows the fortunes of the family that first appeared in Farewell to Lancashire.

In the untamed outback of Western Australia, the Blake sisters are together again despite what seemed like unsurmountable odds. For Cassandra - reunited again with the man she loves - the Swan River Colony is a refuge that seems like a miracle after all her ordeals. And two of her sisters have fallen in love with their new way of life.

But then a messenger arrives from faraway England, and it is the fourth sister, Pandora, who jumps at the chance to make her way back to the Lancashire moors that she misses so badly. The way home, though, will be even harder than the voyage to Australia. The only ship that can take her and her new protector back to England lies many days' journey away, across country that would daunt even a hardened explorer. And when she reaches Outham, a devious, dangerous enemy will do anything to prevent her from taking charge of her family's inheritance....

Brilliant

A wonderful story read beautifully by Nicolette McKenzie. I love Anna Jacobs stories as when listening to them it is easy to imagine being there with the characters and especially when describing the time in Australia and during the journey back to England. I do hope that there will be another story as it would be nice to hear how the lives of the other characters turned out

Not up to authors normal standards

It was boring, not organized well, skipped around so much you didn’t know where you were.
