About this listen
1879. 'Invisible' Anne Brown fears she'll never escape the harshness and poverty of her life in County Donegal, Ireland. Until, one Beltane night, her life is changed forever and she leaves to seek her fortune in Australia.
Upon the death of their father, charismatic Will Worthington and his sister Mari are stunned to find he has left all their money and a ticket to Australia to an enigmatic painted woman, the mother of his unborn child. Their only hope for a brighter future also lies in Australia, where together with Will's best friend, the artist Charlie Turner, they seek their fortunes.
Charlie finds love with a mysterious exotic dancer, yet there is trouble on the horizon. His new friends in the Victorian Alps might be teaching him to run with the wild horses and find his talent with a brush at last, but life in a bushranger gang is dangerous.
As Charlie struggles to break free, all four are left with impossible choices as fortunes waver between life and death, loyalty and the heart.
