A sequel to the author’s first book, End of the Line, the beautifully written and poignant story of TC continues, of an innocent teenager who decides to take up a job offer in the remote country Queensland town of Brolga as it was in the 1960s, never realising that she would never leave, as her life took so many twists and turns which made it impossible to do so. The story is an emotional rollercoaster and provides moments of tender love, laughter, friendship, crime, drama, infidelity, alcoholism and most of all loneliness; experiences shown through the eyes of TC as she grows up and survives this unfamiliar environment, taking her from innocent dependence to independent survival, while never sacrificing her highest standards of integrity and fidelity, ultimately costing her the ability to find true love. Allowing her boss to totally influence her choices and mould her young will, she journeys from Queensland to Victoria and New South Wales, and further afield to the US to sell the opal he mines and she cuts and polishes. Along her hardworking way, she gets to experience motherhood and become an astute and very successful businesswoman in the opal industry in Western Australia, and a polished and well-connected citizen. You will question her choices and experiences as an adult and laugh and cry with her inability to find the total happiness she so longs for.
