"e;As authentic as it gets."e; Australian Outback Books'Heartbreaking one moment but full of hope with the turn of the page.' Adelaide Advertiser'An epic that will touch all hearts and inspire others.' Bendigo AdvertiserDiverging PathsTwo branches of the McAllister family lead very different lives on cattle stations in Central Australia. Rob, a stickler for correctness, manages a wealthy, company-owned property, while his easygoing brother, Sandy, struggles to support his wife and son on an impoverished leasehold.Bound by BloodWhen tragedy throws the families together, before ultimately driving them even further apart, it's Sandy's young son Jim who suffers most. Left to rebuild his shattered world, he depends on the larger-than-life station characters and the comfort of horses.Harsh Beauty, Hard LessonsThis is tough country, where personal heartache is kept in perspective by drought, fire and isolation. The times are just as unforgiving, and as the years pass, Jim discovers that he must pay for his father's mistakes as well as his own.Yet this harshly beautiful land is full of promise, a source of strength to Jim on his road from innocence to independence.___________________Praise for Kerry McGinnis"e;McGinnis is a natural storyteller with a deep understanding of life on the land."e; - The Weekly Times"e;McGinnis has the eye of a painter; she writes as she sees and the land comes alive."e; - Weekend Australian"e;Anything McGinnis writes begs to be read aloud around a campfire."e; - Country Style"e;Kerry McGinnis writes like poetry . . .
