One Woman’s Journey to Honor the Love So Many Feared...Rebellious Kristen Todd Harrison had it all. As the 21-year-old heiress to the largest fortune in Australia, her charmed life appeared to be mapped out: succeed her mother as the leader of the social set and doyen of every charity in town. But a 12-day love affair with an African American marine on leave from Vietnam changed all that. And following his death and the birth of their mixed-race daughter, Kristen encounters a hail of prejudice and rejection-including from her own family. Now, her refusal to give up her baby and renounce her love leads her on a path of destruction that threatens her very survival. Following a disastrous and abusive marriage, Kristen must reckon with her former husband’s hidden criminal background-and a shadowy world that won’t leave her alone-all while battling extreme racism along the way. Despite a temporary respite in the Queensland outback, the fear of those after her is always there. Then, horror, devastation and guilt force her once again to flee in order to protect her daughter. This time, she might not be so lucky... A sprawling, intricately drawn novel, In Small Measures mixes romance, mystery, and revealing social history for an unforgettable read. This important novel is about honoring love and fighting for what’s right, even when everyone says you’re wrong.
