This book is based on real life events and focuses on falsely accused Thomas Holden,who is transported to Australia and his Wife and daughter Molly and Annie,who are at home in England.. My favourite character Molly,she always tries to stay positive even when the odds were stacked against her.All the characters felt real,I must say I kept feeling quite frustrated at Thomas’s character as he kept asking for things,then either not wanting them,or complaining that things arrived too late,so I felt quite sorry for Molly. I loved the bit in the book when Molly started gaining independence and earning her own money,and felt with her the pride,when she achieved what many thought not possible. All in all I loved the story and it made the story more poignant as it was based on true events. The only thing I really disl...
