At the height of the convict transportation to Australia, an unseen boundary separates the poor from the rich. Isabel’s stunning beauty and strong will attract the attention of a wealthy man, but the upper classes have their own secrets, secrets entwined with hers. Daily, she has learned hard lessons on the mean streets of London, but they can’t teach her fast enough about the treachery of the wealthy. She must navigate both the gardens of the upper class and back alleys of the downtrodden in two continents. And she will, or die trying to find her mother.

A Woman Transported
What a great read! Hard to put down!
Terrific strong characters and compelling storyline.
Historical Fiction set in the 1800's in England and Australia, about a woman transported to the colonies for a first offense crime, and the ongoing and far reaching consequences of her sentence to her family left behind to manage without her. A nice blending of fact and fiction brings this story to life.
A must read for Historical Fiction lovers and those interested in the treatment of the women prisoners in our colonial times.
