From the back cover: Three Blake sisters remain in the Swan River Colony in 1866, and two of them are happy to build new lives there. The third, Xanthe, yearns to travel. But even if she could afford it, would her beloved twin let her go? Maia is in love with their employer, and would surely be happiest staying behind with him. Xanthe’s opportunity comes in the form of a handsome Irishman bringing some of the sisters’ inheritance from England. But for Maia, the same man brings trouble in his wake… Both sisters’ reserves of courage and endurance will be tested before they finally find a home to call their own.
