Alone and frightened on the Plymouth quay she is befriended by an extraordinary woman. Myrna Mactaggart is also travelling to Auckland, with plans to establish the finest brothel in the Southern Hemisphere. Myrna's friendship is unconventional to say the least, but proves invaluable when tamar makes some disastrous choices in the new colony. Tamar is the first in a sweeping family saga covering several generations and encompassing the Boer War and the First and Second World Wars. Deborah Challinor successfully brings colonial New Zealand's complex social and racial interactions alive through a tight and exciting plot with compelling characters and a strong, dramatic story which will delight fans of this genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Collins Publishers Australia Pty Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781869507756\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 1.11d","brand":"Deborah Challinor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51707944501429,"sku":"9781869507756","price":11.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_40d2fdd5-fd59-41f5-a6ac-fbdc5b97b008.jpg?v=1757396791","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/tamar-9781869507756","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
