    Little does she know the impact "Mr Mystery Man" will have on her life. From the bestselling author of Australian outback romance. Over 12 million books sold worldwide. Mardie has felt alone since the loss of her mother, and her father's remarriage. When her godfather leaves Mardie the Breakaway, in the outback, she decides to go and live there. The managers, Mr and Mrs Richie, are kind, but Mardie wonders what it would be like to fall in love. Jard Hunter is a hydro-geologist at the big Mining Exploration Camp. He doesn't even look Mardie's way, but that doesn't stop her wondering if he could be the man of her dreams. What chance does Mardie have against the possessive and beautiful scientist Joanna Seddon, who seems to consider Jard her own? And will a dramatic incident and a guilty secret mean that Mardie must keep her true feelings hidden forever? Lucy Walker's gentle, clean romances give readers a fascinating insight into the landscape, people and customs of the Western Australian outback in the mid-twentieth century.

The Breaker: The Novel Behind Breaker Morant


Kit Denton - 1973
    There was a Breaker Morant - he was executed at Pietersburg on 27 February 1902. His crime? Wilful murder of civilians. Yet to this day his guilt remains in doubt. Kit Denton's novel, The Breaker, does more than recount the facts and mystery surrounding Morant's death sentence. Full of action and set in three continents, it covers the entire range of the Breaker's activities. We see him as a champion horseman, a likeable larrikin, a popular balladist. We see him in love and in war. Then we see him face the firing squad that will end his life. Was he a cold-blooded killer or a scapegoat?
