She finds herself increasingly attracted to her employer, George, an older man who is separated from his wife. Their affair is scandalous enough in their small community but what it eventually leads to will horrify thousands.

Beast of War
An ancient prophecy foretells the coming of a beast that will destroy the island of Breeland unless three young people, one from each tribe, journey to the beast's lair and destroy it. Although they appear to have little in common they must learn to put aside their differences and work together for the sake of their homeland.

Red streaks dancing in still water Follow on to pain and slaughter. Daughter earth and son of fire Travel through the sea of mire. Son of air must follow too, Green must join with white and blue. Find the way to mountain lair, Free the river flowing there.

The Letter
When her grandmother dies, Gabby discovers an old letter concealed in a secret compartment in the roll-top desk made four generations earlier. The secrets it reveals belong to an even earlier generation-the first members of Gabby's family to cross the ocean from Britain to Australia, over 150 years ago. In 1855 Sarah and Mary are alone on The Colchester, after their parents are both killed by the deadly disease on-board. The family left their home in Wales in an attempt to find a better life in the colonies but with both parents dead the sisters are devastated, with no idea what to do next. Sarah also becomes ill and, worried about passing her illness to Mary, encourages her to spend the days away from the stuffy cabin, in the fresh air on deck. Befriended by a gentleman, Mary finds herself swept up in a hopeless cycle of shame and lies, with no way out. When the girls arrive in Melbourne they have little hope of finding suitable work and make a drastic decision which could lead either to fortune or disaster.
