Publisher's Synopsis
In 1867 Prince Alfred visited the Australian colonies. This was the first time a member of the Royal family had visited Antipodes. Harry Radford was excited when the Prince was to visit his home, Garranbete, and for his wife it was a welcome diversion, for she had a sorrow...and a secret. Not far from Garranbete lived wretched Katie, married to half-crazed Wesley Eggert and no one could have less in common with Helena Radford. But soon the two young women were to find themselves united in terror.
