She becomes a symbol of courage, daring to pursue her dreams, follow her heart and find her place in a world that promises a better future.

Spanning the last decade of the 19th century, this page-turning saga explores the healing power of friendship while celebrating the pivotal role women played in one of New Zealand’s most turbulent eras.
