About this listen
Some girls are born to be loved, some are born to be useful, and some are born to be bad....
Indulged and wealthy Kat Fitzhubert is sold in an arranged marriage to a colony across the world. Lady Viola Montefiore is the dark-skinned changeling of a ducal family, kept hidden and then shipped away. Titania Boot is as broad as a carthorse and as useful.
On the long sea voyage from their homeland of England, these three women are fast bonded in an unlikely friendship. In the turmoil of 1850s Australia - which has reinvented itself from convict colony to a land of gold rushes and illusive riches - one woman forges a business empire, while another turns to illegal brewery, working alongside a bushranger as the valleys around her are destroyed. The third vanishes on her wedding day, in a scandal that will intrigue and mystify Sydney's polite society and beyond.
In this magnificent and broad-sweeping saga, award-winning author Jackie French defies the myth of colonial women as merely wives, servants, petty thieves, or whores. Instead, in this masterful storyteller's hands, these three women will be arbiters of a destiny far richer than the bewitching glitter and lure of gold.

This book was such a joy to read/listen too. The story had a beautiful flow to it and it kept you coming back to visit with the characters. The Narrator did a great job of all the voices.

Excellent find!
My first Jackie French novel which I thoroughly enjoyed. It felt realistic, interesting in its historical detail which was threaded throughout the compelling and convincing characters. This reading by Abbey was perfect in my opinion- a wonderful production and I'll happily recommend to anyone looking for a 'jolly good book'. Now to choose my next Jackie French listen!

Jackie Never Misses
What a beautiful tale, so thoughtfully-researched and so compellingly written! French is, in my opinion, the best contemporary Australian writer, especially for women
