About this listen

A new life, a new country and a family with a tragic secret....

In 1962 Cindy drops out of college to impulsively marry an Australian grazier, moving from the glamorous world of Palm Springs, California, to an isolated sheep station on the sweeping plains of the Riverina in New South Wales.

Cindy's new life at Kingsley Downs station is not what she'd imagined, as she is flung into a strange and challenging world. Natural disasters and the caprices of the wool industry shape her destiny and though she tries hard to fit in, she finds she is always the outsider.

Adjusting to her new life, Cindy discovers that her new family comes with secrets and a mystery that haunts them all. When Cindy uncovers the shocking truth, the consequences lead to tragedy and Cindy must fight to save her family.

Another good story by a wonderful storyteller

An enjoyable story by a master of the family saga stories. Always meticulously researched and written well to draw in the reader/listener. My only complaint would be that I wish the narrator would have researched the correct pronunciation for Spokane. The rest of the narration was spot on but it grinded the wrong way every time she said "Spoke-ane" rather than "Spoke-Ann"
