Sunshine in December: A Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781876922245)

Family holds strong bonds, as Val soon learns when accepting a posting to the British Embassy in Burma, meeting her soul mate Clive, marrying in India, and beginning a new life in Australia.

But something is always missing. Her family. Homesickness plagues her life, a battle she is embroiled in until returning to England - but only for a time.

Battling deep depression on returning to Australia, Val raises a family and comes to accept she is where she belongs, and that the path she chose made her what she is today - a strong and proud Australian.
