About the book
A mysterious portrait, an unexpected commission, a disappearance in the Outback. She might not know it, but these three things bring Jessica Tennant to Mokhani Station and the notice of cattleman Cyrus Bannerman. What Cy wants to know is if there's another reason for her presence. Something that has to do with his father's strange behavior... For her part, Jessica wonders if coming to Mokhani was a good idea. Working for the Bannermans might make her career, but this family -- with the exception of Cy -- just doesn't seem right. As for Cy, he could be more than all right if it weren't for the fact that he insists on assuming the worst about Jessica!
