When the Bough Breaks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781470951276)

Set in Hobart, Australia, in the mid 1870s 21 year old Meg Hamilton arrives from England to discover why she has not heard from her grandmother for two years. After learning from cousins, Rissa and Angus MacGregor that her beloved Grandma Kate is serving a prison sentence for a murder committed twenty-eight years ago, Meg sets out to prove her innocent, and her quest leads her to her grandmother's old servant, Alice. This story could be summed up as a conflict between the forces of light and darkness, played out in the lives of two young women of the Victorian era, one with a heart for truth and justice and the other with a destructive passion for prestige, property and position.
