The international bestselling rags to riches saga of a convict woman’s ambition and courage in colonial Australia. A gripping page-turner – over 2 million copies sold worldwide.
Sara Dane is an eighteenth-century young Englishwoman, unjustly sentenced and transported to the penal colony of Australia. Follow Sara’s struggle to raise herself from the status of a convict to a position of wealth and power.
‘A grand story.’ Yorkshire Evening Post
Sara faces many challenges, from the savage voyage aboard a convict ship to the corruption and prejudice rife in New South Wales. Life in the Colony is harsh, and Sara has to contend with natural disasters and convict outbreaks, as well as the snobbery of the high society she wishes to enter.
Sara’s life is also influenced in often surprising ways by the men who love her, childhood sweetheart Richard Barwell, ship’s officer-turned-landowner Andrew Maclay, Frenchman Louis de Bourget and the Irish political prisoner Jeremy Hogan.
A compelling historical novel full of adventure, romance, rivalries, tragedies and triumphs, also broadcast as a popular TV mini-series and radio series.
Praise for Sara Dane:

‘The Queen of Storytellers’ Catherine Gaskin has sold more than 40 million books worldwide.
