'Exciting, a moving and yet unsentimental love story' - BOOKLIST Why should Jonas Gray so urgently want to marry his late business partner's daughter, Annabella? Although a spirited girl, she is rather plain and has grown up in Sydney under the constricting influence of her aunt and uncle. Annabella eagerly agrees to a clandestine marriage. It is only when she arrives at Jonas's homestead, Mingylang, in the remote Australian bush country, that she begins to question his motives. For Mingylang is seething with mysterious tensions which appear to centre not only on the past of Jonas, but on the apparently accidental death of Annabella's father.
