About this eBook
Escape to Rainsford Station
Kelly Roberts finds refuge in the rugged and remote cattle country of northern Australia, but when tragedy strikes she is forced to find a new life for herself and her children outside of Rainsford Station.
A New Beginning at Evergreen Springs
She retreats to the family's only asset – a freehold block of land owned jointly by her eccentric father-in-law, Quinn. In the valley at Evergreen Springs, Quinn hopes the fractured family might all come together to start over again.
Perils in the Wild Wet Season
Life in Queensland's far north is unpredictable – especially with the wildness of the wet season. But when twelve-year-old Rob makes a gruesome discovery in the valley, real peril comes far too close to home.
