Produktbeschreibung
Shattered Reflections is a story about survival, love, a yearning for family and belonging, a struggle against conscience, and a quest for truth. Taking us across the vast expanse of Australia and spanning four decades, Shattered Reflections tells of the power of true friendship and courageous women determined to overcome tragedy and deception. And it tells of the obsessive love of a man driven to any lengths to protect his family. But how much is he willing to sacrifice to escape from a past that won't let go? Shattered Reflections is a social history of recognizable places and ordinary Australian people, and how they survive when tested to the extreme. The story journeys into mental illness, and uses genealogy to unravel its mystery and its heartrending pathos.

Autorenporträt
Since the success of Lyn's last book, Shattered Reflections, she has gone on to tackle a totally different project of historical fiction for children, While I Can Still Remember. The telling of Norfolk Island's history came about after a number of holidays there, each time being inspired by a very old Norfolk Island pine tree. She imagined all the events it would have witnessed over the centuries; if only it could talk! During the years it took to research and write the book, she also taught creative writing to adults and facilitated children's writing workshops for the local council. Mother of Andrés and Pilar, Lyn is now retired and lives in a beach-side suburb of Melbourne with her two cats, writing full time and travelling.
