Ard knows he has no hope with Linley and decides to follow his own path: one that brings him close to redemption. But when he learns Linley and the child are in danger, his own child at that, he cannot stop himself speeding to their aid

Will he prevail? Can Linley find it in her heart to forgive him? Or will their love come to nothing at the hands of a violent man? A compulsively readable historical adventure, set on the banks of the mighty Murray River.
