Jemma Musk is settling into her new home in the bustling
goldfields town of Wombat Hill, wanting to establish herself as a
painter and an independent woman. But word has gone out that she
saw a young girl brush with death. Instead of saving her, she
sketched her. What kind of woman does that?
This is not the last time that Jemma Musk will find herself hounded
by gossip and scandal. Even after she has married Gotardo, an
Italian-Swiss dairy farmer, and given birth to their daughter Lucy,
happiness is denied her. A tragedy sets Jemma on the run from the
law, and a legend that of the beautiful outlaw Musk and her
accomplice Byrne is born.
The passionate and headstrong Jemma, determined to live the
creative life, is a heroine in the mould of Sybylla from My
Brilliant Career. She will win your heart in this tumultuous
and enthralling novel by the author of Night Surfing, Last of
the Sane Days, and the award-winning That Oceanic
Feeling.
