by Bruce Stewart

Hutchinson, 1978 [First Edition], ISBN 0091350506, hardcover, dust-jacket

"Passionate, determined, fearless, Alice, Eliza Jane and Clare survive one tragedy after another, sustained by their inherited fortitude and desire to love.  Alice, transported to the colony of New South Wales, serves her sentence and becomes a free woman; Eliza Jane, an unwilling partner in her husband's illegal slave-labour trading at the turn of the century, is forced to commit murder; Clare, a nurse during the Spanish Civil War, works as an undercover agent in Germany during the Second World War.
This is a brilliantly constructed novel tracing the lives and loves of three women, covering five generations of one family, moving between Europe and Australia, and spanning a century."
