Description

Author Annie Browne's riveting plot and well-drawn characters delve into social and religious issues facing Australia and New Zealand beginning when the cuckoo-clock chimes away the final minutes of 1899 beginning the new millennium.

 

Discover the world of social—change, affecting a family intent on gold mining, and pioneering fruit growing, in Central Otago when issues from the last century need addressing after alcohol abuse causes the loss of innocence, and World War One changes lives.

What lies ahead for the family? Can Tottie overcome her homesickness and inherited attitudes about Temperance's need and the adverse effects of alcohol?

Temperance is the 3rd of the Journeys of the Fortune Seekers Series. The next of the Historical series, Secrets, is on track for publication 2021.
