  None of the faces looking at me are kind. Not even that of my mother. I will not marry Aboona. My mate, his brother, was so kind and gentle. Strong and protective. His brother is none of those things. I am pregnant with the child of my late husband, Manoosh   This tribe, not the tribe of my birth, will allow me to stay until my child is born. Then I must leave. Leaving my child behind. This I will not allow. I will leave. There is nothing for me here. Tonight, I will begin my journey.

  VOYAGE TO THE LAST FRONTIER...
  The first book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
  They were transported from 1780s' England, packed like cattle in cargo compartments: scammers and prostitutes, thieves and murderers — doomed to build His Majesty's new colony in Captain Cook's anchorage in Botany Bay.
  It was a cruel fate even for the toughest of individuals but especially for 15-year-old Jenny Taggart, who was sentenced to lifelong exile for a crime she did not commit. Will there be a future for her in this unknown country, or will she succumb to a rough and brutal life?
  
  Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.

  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.
