First published under the name of Dorothy Lucie Sanders; subsequent editions published under the name of Lucy Walker.

First novel about the Montgomeries of Pepper Tree Bay.

The back dust jacket flap of Waterfall has an extract from a broadcast by Irene Greenwood for the "Woman to Woman" Radio Session, March 18 1953 reviewing this work as Book of the Week. Greenwood says, in part, that the novel "achieved immediate success by rocketing to the top of the Best Seller list in the Literary page of last Saturday's [14 March 1953] West Australian. I foretell that this novel of a West Australian family of girls is going to set a pattern for young writers of how to combine fact and fiction with the local scene as background...".
