Publisher Description

'I want you to come back to Kings Canyon . . . If you see it again, the memories of what happened might return.'

A Journey to Redhill Station

When Sara Blake takes up a position as governess on Redhill Station in Central Australia, she isn't expecting to encounter a family in crisis, or to uncover a tragedy of her own.

Embracing a Struggling Family

With the owners' son critically ill, Sara is called upon to take care of their young daughter. As the family struggles to make a living from the drought-stricken land, everyone pitches in – and Sara finds herself letting people in to the empty spaces in her heart.

Unravelling the Shadows of the Past

But the longer she spends out bush, the more she becomes plagued by elusive visions of her dark and troubled childhood. The fragments of memory lead her deep into the red centre of Australia, where at picturesque Kings Canyon she must confront the horrifying secrets of her past.

From the bestselling author of Wildhorse Creek and Tracking North comes an evocative and heartfelt story about how in the remotest of places lives can be lost . . . and found.

Out of Alice

I really enjoyed reading this book. I look forward to reading more of Kerry's books. .

Leggy from Down Under ,

Beautifully descriptive.

I purchased this book on the back of “Tracking North” which I thoroughly enjoyed. Although I thought this a little long winded, the interwoven characters, the descriptive passages of the Australian outback & being drawn into how the farming community live & breath their surroundings all made this another very enjoyable read by this author. Highly recommended.
