International bestseller Patricia Shaw's captivating epic novel is published for the first time in trade paperback with a stunning new package. When Corby Morgan and his young wife Jessie set sail from England for the golden shores of Trinity Bay, they dream of an easy life in Paradise. But Providence, the sugar plantation that is to be their home, is far from what they were expecting! With superstitious labourers from the South Sea islands, Providence offers danger and excitement for Corby and his family. Mike Devlin, the Australian manager, teaches Corby how to farm sugar cane, but finds himself drawn to the gentle and intelligent Jessie. As Jessie becomes more involved in the running of Providence, her coquettish sister Sylvia pursues her own goals. And Corby proves himself to be a weak and devious man. Having survived a shocking introduction to plantation life and battled racial conflict the planters of Providence hope the worst is over. But then nature strikes a fearful blow!
