Shattered Reflections

Shattered Reflections is a story about survival, love, a yearning for family and belonging, a struggle against conscience, and a quest for truth.

Taking us across the vast expanse of Australia and spanning four decades, Shattered Reflections tells of the power of true friendship and courageous women determined to overcome tragedy and deception. And it tells of the obsessive love of a man driven to any lengths to protect his family. But how much is he willing to sacrifice to escape from a past that won’t let go?

Shattered Reflections is a social history of recognizable places and ordinary Australian people, and how they survive when tested to the extreme. The story journeys into mental illness, and uses genealogy to unravel its mystery and its heartrending pathos.
