Book by Hall, Rodney

Catherine Byrne, a nineteenth-century English missionary, travels to remote Australia with her prophetic husband and his band of eight female disciples and is led through severe hardship—shipwreck, disease, and death.

Two sisters and a brother are found bludgeoned and shot to death in a paddock in 1898. The case is never solved - until Patrick Malone, more than half a century later, decides the time has come to sift the truth from the lies.
