Highway robber Convict Runaway Mother Jenny Trelawney is no ordinary thief. Forced by poverty to live in the Devon forest, she becomes a successful highwaywoman - until her luck runs out. Transported to Australia, Jenny must tackle new challenges and growing responsibilities. And when famine hits the new colony, Jenny becomes convinced that those she most cares about will not survive. She becomes the leader in a grand plot of escape. Setting sail in a small open boat on an unknown ocean, she will do anything for freedom, but at what cost?

Media Reviews
An irresistible feast of history, adventure, intrigue and tragedy. Epic yet tender. Authentic yet inspired * Clare Wright *
I was utterly absorbed - swept up and transported into convict life. Jenny Trelawney's struggles - her intelligence, courage and grit - as well as Meg Keneally's beautifully understated writing, kept me up past bedtime night after night * Jane Rawson *
A real page turner, this breathtaking yarn will keep you on the edge of your seat * Dr Jonathan King, author of Mary Bryant - Her Life and Escape from Botany Bay *
