The First Book of
The Scottsferne Chronicles
My name is Annette and Rex is my gorgeous German Shepherd.
After we find a skeleton in the barn of a property I’ve just inherited, a neighbor tells me there are rumors of a mineral spring somewhere on the land. I am determined to discover the truth about the skeleton.
Was my own father involved?
Or his best friend who sold him the property?
My search takes Rex and me on a road trip that includes a visit to Coober Pedy, a remote opal mining town in South Australia. Along the way we meet David and his grandfather Henry (Pops) Dawson. What they teach me about dowsing encourages me to search my new property for the mythical mineral spring.
Can it provide the basis for the Scottsferne Spa and Wellness Center I dream about establishing?
The Pennie Irvine Series – Book 1
Pennie explains:
‘I was kicked out of home at seventeen and, even though I was a popular girl and had plenty of friends, I needed to make my own way in life. With nothing more than a backpack to hold my few belongings, I started hitchhiking.
I tried numerous jobs as I moved from place to place. I was bartending in Broken Hill when I decided, on a whim, to accept an offer from sixty-eight-year-old Percy Chambers. I traveled with him on his final run driving a delivery truck for Olivers Overland. A mishap along the way saw me making the choice to set out for the town of Orange.
Finding and then losing Steve Rogers sets the scene for the rest of my life.’
