Produktbeschreibung
When a family's dark past collides with a community's future, no one will escape unscathed. Convict Robert Blayney thought his life was over. But in a twist of fate, he arrives at Port Phillip with a ticket of leave. The rest of the Blayney family joins him with nothing but hope and a desperate need for a fresh start. Together, they carve out farms in the shadow of the mysterious Hanging Rock, determined to build a legacy from the unforgiving Australian soil. But prosperity comes at a price. As the Blayneys amass wealth through gold and shrewd business dealings, their carefully guarded secrets and volatile temperaments threaten to destroy everything they've built. Brother turns against brother, forbidden passions ignite, and courtroom battles become as common as family dinners. Standing in opposition are the Marlowes, respectable, God fearing pillars of the community who see the Blayneys as everything wrong with the new colony. When both families stake their claims to Hanging Rock, a decades-long feud erupts that will divide an entire district. From the goldfields of Mount Alexander to the drawing rooms of Melbourne, from desperate poverty to scandalous wealth, this sweeping family saga captures the raw, untamed spirit of colonial Australia. As generations clash over land, morality, and the right to determine their own destinies, one question remains: Can love finally heal what the hatred has torn apart? Based on true events, Conflict at Hanging Rock is a gripping tale of redemption, rivalry, and the indomitable human spirit.
