Items related to The Trader's Sister
Ismay Deagan has one wish in the world - to leave Ireland and join her brother, Bram, in Australia. However, her father has other ideas and orders her to marry their vicious neighbour Rory Flynn, even though she loathes him.
But after Rory brutally attacks her Ismay realises she has to escape. So, disguising herself as an impoverished young widow, she sets sail for Australia, hoping to be reunited with her brother.
When she meets Adam Treagar on the ship, she finally starts to believe her dreams of future happiness may come true. But before they even reach their destination they are flung into adventures in Suez, Ceylon and Singapore . . .
Can Ismay tell Adam the truth about who she really is? What secrets is Adam himself hiding? And will Ismay's past catch up with her and threaten her new life in Australia, before it has even begun?

Review:
The story keeps you turning the pages with characters who have you cheering for them or despising them. An added bonus is the opportunity to catch up with old friends in the characters from previous books. This is a must read book but only open it when you have time to read it as it's hard to put down.

'A compelling read' (Sun on FREEDOM'S LAND)
Impressive grasp of human emotions. (The Sunday Times)

This is a fascinating insight into a piece of Australia's history that receives little attention. (Newcastle Herald, Australia on FREEDOM'S LAND)
