THE PHENOMENAL SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
By the multi-million-copy bestselling author of The Light Between Oceans
The 'Australian Gone with the Wind' - a breathtaking epic novel set in the vast outback of Australia - about resilience, family secrets and the enduring power of love.
Outback Western Australia, 1958.
For generations, the MacBrides have lived on a remote sheep station, Meredith Downs. A million arid acres, it’s an ocean of land, where the weather is a capricious god, and time still roams untamed. One ordinary day, on a lonely road, under the unending blue sky, patriarch Phil MacBride swerves to avoid a kangaroo.
In seconds the lives of the entire MacBride family are shattered. Fate comes for them again, in a twist of consequences that will cause one of them to lose their life, and another to sacrifice theirs for the sake of an innocent child. Matt, the youngest MacBride, is plunged into a moral and emotional journey, as he is forced to choose between love and duty, sacrifice and happiness.
A sweeping, heart-wrenching, warm-hearted novel of family and belonging, of compassion and hope, and a powerful testament to the enduring strength of love.
