Omschrijving

Can seeking your fortune lead to happiness?

Set against the turbulent excitement of the Australian gold rush, Patricia Shaw presents The Glittering Fields, a story of courage, ambition and desire. The perfect read for fans of Tamara McKinley and Sarah Lark.

'Storyline as dramatic and colourful as the land itself' - Gold Coast Bulletin

Following the tragic death of their father, Clem Price and his sister Alice take over the running of Lancoorie sheep station in Western Australia. Despite his youth and inexperience, Clem is determined to see the farm prosper. When wealthy Dr Carty suggests that Clem marry his daughter Thora, Clem cannot afford to refuse the handsome dowry she will bring. And although he knows that Thora is carrying another man's child, he is enchanted by his beautiful young bride. Yet Thora proves to be flighty and demanding, disappointed that her husband is not as wealthy as she had imagined.

Desperate to please her, Clem joins the goldrush to Kalgoorlie to seek his fortune. But his prolonged absence enrages Thora further and, despite Alice's warnings, she travels to Perth to find her husband. Her dramatic reunion with Clem is to have shocking consequences from which those involved might never recover...
