博客來Clawhaven Cliff - In the late 1800s, the Mayford women were bound by more than family. They were shackled to the ruthless demands of their family’s shipping company. Bridgette and Odette Mayford were expected to marry for the financial benefit of the company. They soon learn the Mayford men would stop at nothing to control their lives - possibly even murder.
Fleeing England to escape the oppressive grip of Edward Mayford, Bridgette and the pregnant Odette sail for Townsville, North Queensland, hoping for a fresh start. But Australia might not be far enough away.
As the years pass, Odette discourages her daughter Florence’s questions, relating to the family. The discovery of a hidden music case ignites Florence’s curiosity. Filled with family mementos, it could contain the answers she is looking for or leave her with more questions.
In this historical family saga of power, betrayal, defiance, and the unbreakable bonds between women, any sign of weakness has the potential to cost the Mayford women everything.
