When Jarrah Jandamarra wakes to find himself alone in the Australian desert, it takes a little while for him to realise that his father has failed to return from hunting. The year is 1770. A few years later, on the other side of the world, Regina Courtney finds herself abandoned in the slums of Plymouth, England, when her widowed mother is jailed for prostitution. Both Jarrah and Regina's stories start when they are just nine years old. What follows is a family saga of lives entwined with the history of 'Tranquillity Fields', the Plymouth property bought by Regina when she returns to England to search for her mother. Spanning more than 200 years and across two continents, Tranquillity Fields is a story of separation and reunion, passion, revenge and interacting relationships set against the backdrop of two World Wars and the many cultural and historic changes the descendants of Jarrah and Regina experience over those years.
Year of Days : Summer draws and describes the timescapes which are the contradictions of Australia. Our seasons are harsh and extreme, yet supporting a community increasingly and unconsciously reflecting on its past to create a stronger present. ¿The constants in our lives are our defining seasons, amid the relational and expressive collage which is the formative relationships which are equally us. We are our people, our seasons, our times, our perceptions. Every day is different, but our seasons are constants. Summer is the illustrative season of Australia, as Winter is for Scandinavia, or Autumn for New England. Year of Days: Summer transcribes the depth and reality of Australia through relationships across Summers, the impermanent meeting the unchanging.

Has she drowned? Has she been kidnapped or murdered by the unknown assassin who has been pursuing her for some time?The matter is further complicated when Beattie's fiancé gives Inspector Murray a journal, recently written by Beattie, which discusses Tresoriun time travel. This indicates that he at least needs to consider the strange possibility that she may have travelled to a different time.The author explains that the wonder of Tresoriun time travel is that it's a natural phenomenon which does not require laboratories, complex scientific equipment or time machines to occur. When it happens, it's a spontaneous event, and the time traveller only travels within their own lifespan.It is Beatrix's hope that should a time-travel event occur, then she will travel back in time to the time of the Noosa family tragedy.
