About this ebook
'Daniel Flynn … guilty! Seven years. To be transported.'
Growing up in the slums of Liverpool, Daniel Flynn knew all about hardship and hunger. It was poverty that led him to make the greatest mistake of his life and the shame he brought upon his family was his constant companion.
Transported to the Australian colonies as a convict, Danny sets out to create a new life and erase the sins of his past. Intelligent and ambitious, he thrives under the guidance of a kind boss at the property, Shoreham, in western Queensland. But the stigma of his convict origins haunt him, thwarting him from reaching his goals, even after becoming a free man.
Is he destined to live with his mistake forever? Will he win the heart of the girl he loves?
Hope in his Heart by Margaret Elliott is a fresh take on the classic convict story. But instead of dwelling on the brutality of the 19th-century penal system, this is a story about fresh beginnings, hard work, and hope for a brighter future. Emotionally charged and told from different characters' perspectives, it will expand your admiration for those early settlers who carved out a living and a home in the Australian bush.
Margaret Elliott
Margaret Elliott was born in Sydney, but raised in Bendigo, Victoria. She has spent many years of her adult life residing in Queensland, in the outback, the north, and the south. She now lives in southern Queensland with her husband. Margaret’s hobbies are reading, genealogy and writing. She has written many stories over the years just to amuse herself and has compiled family histories. Hope in His Heart is the first fiction story Margaret has sought to publish. Some of her convict ancestors led quite colourful lives, which sparked her imagination and provided fodder for this story. A sequel to this book will follow.
