y separately published work icon The Sugar Dragon Victoria Gordon , London : Mills and Boon , 1980 Z815422 1980 single work novel romance When Verna moved to the Queensland sugar city of Bundaberg to work as an editor on the local newspaper, she thought she was leaving all her romantic problems behind - until she met the forceful Con Bradley. Their first meeting was a shattering experience, but one that Verna thought she could soon put behind her - until Con erupted into her working life as well, nicknaming her 'Dragon Lady the Editor' and turning her world upside down.
