About this ebook

In 1954, ex-escort Sunni Sinclair breaks free of Australia’s gangland, reinventing herself as a pub owner in a lawless mining town near Sydney. A champion of justice, she challenges societal norms, advocating for women’s rights and downtrodden miners, but soon feels confined by the expectations of society. Fueled by vengeance and seduced by the sirens of illegal adventure, Sunni masterminds a stunning heist that echoes through the underworld and leaves a trail of dazzled and outwitted men in her wake. As her crime threatens to consume her, Sunni gambles everything on a daring bluff – and wins! Sunni’s journey reflects on society at that time and searches out the porous boundaries between legal and illicit.

This captivating crime novel is available as a paperback, eBook and soon as a audiobook narrated by esteemed Australian actor Fiona Press.
