Convict Girl
by Christine Edwards / Chrissie Michaels (Author)
Mary Beckith, convicted for theft, is transported for life to the colony of New South Wales. She is determined to take charge of her own destiny by whatever means she can. But she does not reckon on the most powerful people in the colony making decisions that will alter her live forever. Her fate is to be linked to two extraordinary explorers – Nicholas Baudin and Matthew Flinders – and their marvellous Voyages of Discovery.
