About this listen
Editorial reviews
Joy Dettman's compelling saga is set in the rural Australian logging town of Woody Creek in the early 1900s, when Gertrude Foote discovers a pregnant woman near the railroad, unconscious and near death. She doesn't survive, but the child does, and is soon taken in by Gertrude's daughter, Amber, and her husband, Norman, who have recently lost their son in childbirth. The fairy tale turns dark, though, as young Jenny suffers under the neglect and abuse of her new mother. Diedre Rubenstein's performance is sharp and precise, bringing deft characterization and heightening the emotions of this brutal tale.

Beautifully written saga...should be a movie
I have previously read and actually have the books... nice to enjoy them in audio. Joy Dettman is one of the BEST Australian authors ever!

Joy Dettman you are amazing
A must read novel from an iconic Australian writer. One can almost taste the rich red dust of the environment.
