'a delightful read and a clever insight into a fascinating period of Australian history.' Australian Women's Weekly
Escaping to the country from her unhappy city life, Cassie Holloway moves to the little town of Whitby Point. Here she meets the Aquino family, whose fishing business was founded by their ancestor, Giuseppe, an immigrant Italian, some ninety years before.
Life for Cassie on the south coast is sweet as she sets up a successful restaurant and falls in love with Giuseppe's great-grandson Michael. But when the family patriarch dies, a devastating family secret is revealed which threatens to destroy her dreams.
Cassie's future happiness now rests on her quest for the truth.

Starting in Italy in the early 20th century before jumping to a small coastal NSW town in the current day, Di Morrissey’s latest tale is an impeccable love story. The prolific author serves up another sweeping novel about fateful relationships, family secrets and the pull of the ocean.

What a storytellers art
You have become the Australian version of my other favourite story teller, South Africa's Wilbur Smith. Captivating and absorbing. Few can do this. Thank you for taking the strain out of my 2 weeks visit to Morocco.
