Jean Plaidy
From The Cover:
Jean Plaidy’s robust historical novels, which range from the tempestuous, strife-torn eleventh century to the heady passions of the Georgian era, have enthralled readers the world over, bringing history vividly to life.
Beyond The Blue Mountains Set in the England and Australia of the late eighteenth to early nineteenth centuries, this is a compelling and convincing story told with vivid authenticity.
The adventures of the bold and reckless Carolan in the East End, in Newgate Jail, and aboard the prison ship transporting her to Australia forcefully recreate the perversion, vice and cruelty of that age.
Once in Sydney Carolan, now a convict maid-servant seeks freedom and status. But the way she chooses to ensure her future is such that it will haunt her for the rest of her life…
Jean Plaidy also writes as Victoria Holt and Philippa Carr
