'South-east Queensland , 1875
'Three pioneering women, one epic struggle — in an unforgiving land where love carries the highest price

'BRIDIE... Caught between the love she feels for her husband, and her hatred for her scheming stepson — she is the keeper of family secrets. Patiently she waits for the day when she can finally reveal the truth.

'MADDIE... While devoted to her family, she soon discovers that love alone will not protect them from the harsh and hostile land that they have made their home

'KITTY... Emerging into womanhood, she is loved by one man, desired by another. However she finds that sometimes there are no choices in life.

'A sweeping saga that tests the boundaries of faith and courage, When Hope is Strong is a story to treasure.' (Publication summary)
