'Heartbreaking one moment but full of hope with the turn of the page.' Adelaide Advertiser
'An epic that will touch all hearts and inspire others.' Bendigo Advertiser
Diverging Paths
Two branches of the McAllister family lead very different lives on cattle stations in Central Australia. Rob, a stickler for correctness, manages a wealthy, company-owned property, while his easygoing brother, Sandy, struggles to support his wife and son on an impoverished leasehold.
Bound by Blood
When tragedy throws the families together, before ultimately driving them even further apart, it's Sandy's young son Jim who suffers most. Left to rebuild his shattered world, he depends on the larger-than-life station characters and the comfort of horses.
Harsh Beauty, Hard Lessons
This is tough country, where personal heartache is kept in perspective by drought, fire and isolation. The times are just as unforgiving, and as the years pass, Jim discovers that he must pay for his father's mistakes as well as his own.
Yet this harshly beautiful land is full of promise, a source of strength to Jim on his road from innocence to independence.
