      This book is the second in the series by Deborah Challinor, set in colonial Australia.It continues the lives of the three friends, and how they cope after the death of their friend Rachel, while working as assigned convicts, and at the same time, trying to keep the notorious Bella Jackson, off their backs.Much of the same really, except set in a different place.
    • 4/5
      Second book in the 'Convict Girls' series. I read the first because Ann Gordon (nee King), matron of the Female Factory at Parramatta from 1827 to 1836, was my fourth great grandmother.The girls are living as assigned convicts in a web of danger. They live with the guilt of having committed murder and being blackmailed by their archenemy, Bella Jackson. Life is fairly tough, Sarah in working for a jeweller with a jealous wife, Harrie works as a maid and uses her needlework skills whilst being haunted and Friday drinks to cope with working as a prostitute. A great read.
