Description
Gerry Riordan's life has come to a standstill after a fateful night at the Drawbridge Hotel in Cork. A celebratory pint with his friend Lawrence Toole ends in tragedy, and Gerry is accused of theft and murder. Despite being wrongly convicted, he manages to escape hanging and finds himself transported to New South Wales. As a convict on the Great North Road project, Gerry begins working in stone again, but it's not long before he meets an enigmatic overseer and two fellow convicts who challenge his outlook on life. Meanwhile, those responsible for framing him are also in the colony, adding to the tension. Can Gerry rebuild his shattered dreams amidst the harsh realities of convict life? Australian Historical Fiction brings this gripping tale to life, exploring themes of survival, redemption, and the human spirit.
