'Set in Queensland Australia between the years 1895 to 1910, about the time of the Federation, Isabel is a compelling tale of forbidden love, jealousy and bonds that shaped a woman's life, much through emotion and the triumph of the human spirit. Isabel defies the traditions of the times to maintain her beliefs and ideals against all odds. Even after her lover's death, she is still not sure whether a life is possible with any other man, when the past returns with haunting thoughts.' (Publication summary)
