About this audiobook

Hobart Town in the 1840's is a bustling Colonial settlement on the edge of the wild, where secrets linger like shadows and justice is not always what it seems.

Winifred Oakley, once a daring amateur detective in England, has settled into her new life as an officer's wife in Van Diemen's Land. But beneath the veneer of polite colonial society lies a web of corruption, betrayal, and danger that cannot be ignored. When whispers of rebellion among the convict population reach Winifred's ears, she finds herself drawn into a mystery far more treacherous than any she has faced before.

As she delves deeper, navigating the rugged terrain of the colony and the darker corners of Hobart Town, Winifred uncovers a conspiracy that threatens not just the fragile peace of the settlement but the safety of her own family. With her keen intellect and unyielding sense of justice, she must risk everything to untangle the threads of deception-before it's too late.

Can Winifred uncover the truth and protect the life she has built, or will this shadowy frontier claim more than just her freedom?

The Shadows of Unrest is a thrilling tale of mystery, resilience, and the quest for justice set against the raw beauty of Australia's colonial past.
