"Set at the turn of the twentieth century Hessian is a story of two women's lives and their struggle to find and accept their identities. Only to discover that one woman's joy is the others worst fear. Hessian takes us on a journey through the turbulent times of World War one, to another war, closer to home known as the White Australia Policy. Hessian is a story of cruelty and tragedy, but also a story of mystery, love and kindness. Most of all it is a story of hope."--Author Facebook page
