Summary

When a simple mix-up leaves their father Joe’s estate to Eden, their long-absent mother, Clare and Aaron decide it’s finally time to track Eden down. But it’s been over thirty years since she left their remote outback mining town, and they’ve never heard from her again.

Aaron is dealing with a new marriage that’s currently trapped in immigration limbo, and his teenage daughter Cady is clearly going through a personal crisis of her own. After decades away, Clare has flown home from New York for Joe’s funeral, leaving her high-powered job and her not-quite-fiancé behind for what she thinks will be a short trip.

Neither Aaron or Clare are prepared for a fight for their inheritance against the mother who abandoned them as children. As they dig through years of secrets and lies in their tiny community to uncover the truth about Eden and Joe, will they notice the more immediate danger that threatens their family?

Another terrific story from Caroline.

I’ve always been a fan of her work in ‘traditional’ book form. It’s even better to be able to listen on the go. The chapters are a perfect length for a quick listen on the commute or during my lunch break.

Would 100% recommend.

A fantastic read.

I love good Australian drama. Unfortunately this didn't fit the bill. I don't think the story knew what it was about. It had a weird divergence right at the end and the main story line got wrapped up in an odd fashion.

This really didn't work for me

This book was incredible. I’m so moved by the story and the bittersweet ending. I lost my mum in 2021 and this story of love had me completely entranced. Brilliant.

Beautiful

Loved the the weaving in and out of each persons life experience… excellent and I didn’t want to stop listening for the end . Rounded off beautifully with no guessing!
