    About this series

    Libby once loved visiting the beautiful country property of Barons Reach, with her grandmother and aunt, tagging along as they conducted historical tours. But, that was when she had been a child. Before Roger appeared, her aunt refused to believe her, and her best friend, Jimba, let her down. Ten years later though, the past is catching up to her. She now has no other option. She must return to Barons Reach, to face her ghosts, and discover the truth about what really happened all those years ago.

      Rachel cannot imagine a life away from 'Binda', her home in the bush, where the Macquarie River flows alongside her back door. Her childhood days are spent with her neighbour and biracial best friend, Darel; exploring and learning about the Australian bush and the Wiradjuri (aboriginal) culture, through the teachings of his part-aboriginal mother. At their favourite meeting place, the dividing fence between the two properties, they share all their secrets, including what Darel has told Rachel about his mother's experience as one of the Stolen Generation. Meanwhile, Rachel's mother, Betty Winton, looks to the future and will go to any length to separate her only daughter from an 'unsuitable' relationship. Rachel is sent to boarding school, and a few years later the family home is sold to Darel's parents, the Rutherfords. Rachel struggles to come to terms with losing Binda and her best friend, but later, when Darel re-enters her life with a woman by his side, she finally decides she must let go of the past, once and for all. However, could what she thought to be her greatest loss, actually be to key to finding her greatest joy?

Will finding her mother bring an end to these feelings? Or, will she discover that she must make a choice, between proudly accepting her aboriginality or turning her back and walking away from the one man who will bring her lasting happiness and peace?
