Book description
Sarah Thornhill is the youngest child of William Thornhill,
convict-turned-landowner on the Hawkesbury River. Her stepmother calls
her willful, but handsome Jack Langland loves her and she loves him. Me
and Jack, she thinks, how could it go wrong? But there's an ugly secret
in Sarah's family. That secret takes her into the darkness of the past,
and across the ocean to the wild coasts of New Zealand. Among the
strangers of that other place, she can begin to understand.
