The true story of a woman who overcomes personal tragedies, family scandals and fierce opposition to make her mark as a business and community leader in a new city dominated by men.
With a husband whose hubris brought the family to its knees, this tale of deceit, tragedy and courage plays out in the streets and umbrella shops of Victorian-era Ballarat and Bendigo.
“ a ripping yarn. Beautifully researched and written and proves that every person ever born lives a life of mystery, adventure, and drama. It’s like looking for gold. You simply have to dig below the surface“
