Produktbeschreibung
The Southern Skyes Series Two brothers are separated by circumstance, their descendants by choice. In centuries-old Australia, familial roots of siblings and societies feed the beasts of prejudice, misfortune, and disproportionate wealth. What will the fruits be? ~~~ Southern Cross Rising In this the fifth book of the Southern Skyes series, the era is ripe for historic battles, during a time spanning the Boer Wars, Australian federation, women's suffrage, and World War I. Among those warriors for progress are members of the Skye and McCabe families, not just on the battlefield, but in their homes and communities as well. As the new generation seeks to forge an enlightened future, the tentacles of the old guard continue to breech the new. Prejudices, forbidden love, and the grip of legacies prove they are without bounds. And so the saga continues, set against a backdrop of hope brought about by the emergence of a new nation.
Autorenporträt
After reading Alex Haley's Roots, Sharyn developed a passion for genealogy and history that deepened with the ensuing years. This went hand in hand with another newly discovered interest: writing. And so her first series was born, Southern Skyes, an Australian historical fiction family saga. While completing the six-book series, Sharyn devoted some writing time to another passion: the good old-fashioned mystery. You can find those in the Cody Costin Cozy Mysteries and the Jami Laramie Mystery series. When not writing or researching, Sharyn can be found enjoying time at home on the New South Wales Central Coast with family and friends, swimming, hiking, walking her dogs, reading, painting, tracing someone's family tree, or enjoying a rock concert. She digs a good rollercoaster ride as much as a trail bike ride. To round out her adventurer's spirit, she embraces the joy of travel and learning about other cultures. Look for more books from Sharyn as she further develops her current mystery line-up and tinkers with other creative ideas along the way.
