The interesting account of a convict's daughter in Sydney and the way an attempted elopement changed her life. The book gives a good overview of life in nineteenth-century Australia. Although this story is presented as non-fiction, Lindsey admits that she took the liberty of creating many of the conversations and events, and I was disappointed to find out at the end just how much was fictionalized.
