AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Ann rescues a man from death on the hot dusty plains near her father's station, 100 miles from the Lachlan River. The kindness eventually wins his forgiveness for her father - his own brother who had had him sentenced to prison for a crime he did not commit. An overseer with the DTs takes a revenge of his own, and the identity of Ann's true father revealed. (PB)
