Produktbeschreibung

Sequel to Southern Gold

From tough beginnings in the slums of Dunedin, Billie is now society's darling, living at Broad Bay overlooking the beautiful Otago harbour. It is the 1890s and she is right in the middle of big social changes: Lebanese immigrants, women's suffrage, workers' rights. Her fashion empire goes from strength to strength thanks to her association with a young Lebanese woman. And with a charming husband and a posse of distinctive children, she is well fulfilled.

Until the new century dawns and it all starts to unravel.

The indomitable Billie is pushed to the edge of reason. Will she lose her mind and all that she loves and has worked for?

Against a background of social and political upheavals, Threads of Gold is a story of risk, redemption, and the power of love.

It is the story of a New Zealand woman ahead of her time, and the challenges she faces head-on.

Autorenporträt

JUDE THOMAS BIO

Jude Thomas lives in New Zealand on the magical northern coast of Mangawhai. But she was born and raised in the southern city of Dunedin, where historical fiction Southern Gold is set. She also spent many summers in the Central Otago region where part of the story takes place and says she can still smell the wild thyme and feel the shimmering heat. But her lasting memory of a southern upbringing is the piercing winter and her intensely itchy chilblains.

Jude is a member of NZ Society of Authors (PEN NZ Inc) and the International Writers' Workshop NZ Inc. In 2015 she was awarded a grant through the NZ Society of Authors CompleteMS Programme. This has been invaluable to her in the writing of Southern Gold, her first full-length novel. She is currently working on it's sequel.
