Di Morrissey is one of Australia's bestselling international novelists. She trained as a journalist with Australian Consolidated Press and became Women's Editor for The Daily Mail Group in London. She had her own television program in the United States on CBS and was a regular presenter on Australia television. In addition to radio broadcasting, she has written for TV, film and theatre. She is the author of 23 bestselling novels including The Winter Sea and lives in Manning Valley, New South Wales, Australia.
The remote town of Broome is Australia's last frontier and the perfect place for those with bad-and good or innocent-purposes to hide. In this sequel to TEARS OF THE MOON, we again meet up with Lily Barton as she continues her pearl farming venture. Many other characters are reintroduced, including Lily's daughter, Sami, who comes to terms with her Aboriginal roots. Narrator Kate Hood skillfully presents mother and daughter, the elderly and feisty Biddy and other Broome residents, as well as visitors from Afghanistan, Japan, and China-all of whom converge to share the myths and legends of their lives. Those who enjoy an exotic locale and an unpredictable story will love KIMBERLY SUN. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
