About this ebook
An epic adventure story set on the coast and inland, detailing life in Western Australia in 1948 on a sheep and cattle station. This is real outback living where dramatic events can occur and unforgotten shadows effect the everyday lives of others. When the meatworks were in Wyndham, escaped prisoners strike terror... a family and a stockman with unhappy pasts... the mailman finds a strange body on the road... an accident in windy weather... a shearer with talent... a tragic death daunts natives... a minister’s plane crashes... cattle rustlers cause a stampede... three girls lost in the mountain range discover the past... and even love alters lives...
