The New Beginning

The book is about four young women who embark on a journey of a lifetime to the other side of the world to Australia, not knowing what the future may hold for them, and the tight bond that binds them together, which lasts a lifetime.

The heartache that is felt by each other, the dangers and consequences that befall them set in turbulent times, the war in Europe, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Singapore, and Darwin in 1941, gives each one a different outlook on life, unable to return to England for the foreseeable future.
