Out of Ashes

By Cherie (Rose)

In the karri forest of Western Australia in the late 1800s, two young teens are orphaned as a horrific bushfire sweeps through the bush and destroys their home. Carrying the guilt of their recent sins, which burdens them through the following years, they strive to achieve their parents' dream of carving out a prosperous existence in the bush.

Affected by family events in the elite social circles of England, harshness of the Australian countryside and their aloneness, Jacob and Lillyanna battle to survive the elements, the darker side of humanity, and the effects of their own immoral deeds. Aided by nearby neighbours, and their loving, mostly absent grandfather, the pair try to rise above cultural beliefs, their upbringing and moral and racial social acceptances.

What will be Lillyanna's and Jacob's eventual fate?
