Synopsis

William's life was turned upside down at twelve years of age, when his father was killed throwing a drunk out of their hotel. His mother spiraled into a series of moods of depression at which time a conniving patron, Mr. Albert Ilfield, quickly seized on the opportunity and installed himself as the proprietor of the hotel and took over more than the running of the business. William's life took him through many challenges and more than a few intriguing situations from that point on. After suffering four years of physical abuse from Mr. Ilfield, William was finally thrown out of the hotel and told to make a man of himself. Full of anger and aching to get even, William spent many years scheming and plotting his revenge, and even though he seemed focused on nothing else, it did reveal his true character. This search for revenge took him across the oceans to Australia in the early days of its settlement, allowing him the opportunity to explore some of that vibrant, harsh land. Did he survive? Did he return home? Did he exact his revenge? Read on to uncover the account of Seasons of Change.

About this title

About the Author

The author was drawn to write a book about her life after encouragement from many people. At the time of writing this novel, she lived with her husband in South Australia for the summer months. They moved to Western Queensland, living on a sapphire lease, in the middle of the native Australian scrub, including corrugated uneven dirt tracks, no running water, no electricity, and no flushing toilet for the dry season. The only heating was a campfire, the only lighting was battery power from solar energy. While her husband dug the dirt in search of these sapphires, she wrote this novel, in the midst of the native flora and fauna.
