A deceased mother challenges a brilliant nurse from beyond the grave to uncover a century-old family mystery. She eventually triumphs over tragedy at immense personal cost.
On receiving a mysterious packet from BEYOND the grave, Enya Raffetty embarks on a mission to learn more about her family’s origins.
She travels to the mystifying OutBack town of Brolga where her great grandfather began the family heritage.
Settling in at the old family homestead, she discovers a photo album from far back in time which entices her to visit their isolated graveyard.
Without any care of an approaching thunderstorm, Enya walks up onto the hill behind the house. Standing in the rain, she gets hit by a bolt of lightning.
That evening in 1899, she is found unconscious by Lockland Dawson, a handsome Jackaroo landowner, who is fascinated by her.
A nurse is hired to tend for the injured stranger at Lock’s Kooyong Homestead property.
Slowly regaining her memory, Enya realizes she is from a time in the future yet having fallen in love with the magnetic Lock and developing friendships in the district; she hopes to remain.
Eventually, Enya needs to confess her knowledge to Lock and her nurse Linda. Although this is confusing, it sums up her differences.
Lock has fallen in love with Enya and is troubled she will disappear in the same manner she mysteriously arrived. However Enya convinces him, there are no certainties in life and every day must be enjoyed with a trust and faith in God.
As a nurse with a Ph.D., she is more advanced in her medical understanding than the local doctor and takes on delivering a difficult birth, making her a valued commodity in the neighborhood.
This book holds, suspense, drama, happiness, sorrow, faith, and love, down through the ages.
Up and down according to advertizing.
The longer she remained looking and reading those graves, the longer she wanted to stay. The wind picked up in its velocity with the return of rain. Lightning flashed, and thunder hit hard upon the hill with deafening reverberation. There was no fear yet sanely it was better to start back for the house. With the rain already beginning to soak her clothes she finally lifted the umbrella above her head to release the catch and allow its width to spring open.
At that split second lightning flashed, striking the raised umbrella stick and traveled down to meet her body. A tremendous jolt uprooted her from the spot where she stood throwing her backward and slamming her head against one of the many surrounding ghost gum trees. Blackness flooded her mind, with all sense of reality or reason lost. She was left alone and unconscious and to the storms fierce onslaught.
