An unseen, evil hand was reaching out to crush Marty Frobel and his family, trying to drive them far from their native Queensland home. Their only hope is the-Power of Pinjarra.

The opal-rich area of Southwestern Queensland at the turn-of-the century is the setting for Book Two in the Australian Destiny Series. Fortunes are made and hopes are dashed daily, as men and women match wits against the land, plying their trades in the mining towns and cattle stations of the Outback. Only the elusive Aborigines seem to know the secret of survival here.

Against this turbulent backdrop, an unlikely friendship forms. Marty Frobel, the son of a prominent area family, is able to rescue Pearl Fowkes, a preacher's daughter with aristocratic tastes. As time goes on, Marty must grapple with the sinister Ross Sheldon a greedy and unscrupulous landowner with grand political aspiration as well as all the problems that go with running his own cattle station, the Pinjarra. Meanwhile, Pearl leaves home with her sister to start a new life of her own.

NONE OF THEM ARE QUITE PREPARED FOR THE TRAGEDY THAT IS SURE TO CHANGE THEIR VALUES-AND THEIR LIVES!

About the Author

Appreciating the wonders of God's creation has always been a favorite pastime for Sandy Dengler. She remembers spending a great deal of time as a child exploring the wood lots around her parent's home in Sidney, Ohio.

Sandy's interest in nature greatly influenced her life as she grew older, as well. After receiving her undergraduate degree at Bowling Degree State University in 1961, she went on to receive a Master's in desert ecology at Arizona State University. One of her courses required that she do a detailed study on one of the major deserts of the world; she chose Australia. As time went by she learned to love this rugged country&a love that is captured quite vividly in her AUSTRALIAN DESTINY series. This is a continuation of THE CODE OF HONOR, a romantic tale of life in the Australian outback and set in the early 1900's.

"elements were somehow more elemental in the past and people lived closer to them. Our todays are so tied to the past," notes Sandy. And, by using the medium of historical fiction, she enjoys the best of both worlds: teaching truths from God's Word, touching lives as she does so, and being able to absorb herself in her writing as she "prowls the starkly beautiful woods and deserts of yesterday."

Sandy and her husband, a park service naturalist, make their home in Washington State, where she continues to write.
