Life in 19th century Australia overflows with hardship . . . Will Jayne have the courage to hold onto her parents’ legacy?
Description:
Mysterious strangers, a Scripture verse, and a threat.
“Reids never give up easily.” The words
once held so much truth. But at eighteen, Jayne Reid is beginning to
wonder if she can live up to that standard.
When puzzling strangers appear and odd
things start to happen, Jayne and her two younger sisters must find a
solution—or lose everything.
What mystery lurks in the shadows of the
Australian bush? Who is the man in town who thinks he can buy and bully
anyone he wishes? And is it all somehow connected to their new farmhand?
Journey with Jayne as she struggles to
change fear into boldness and boldness into a trusting relationship with
her Heavenly Father. What adventures lie ahead?
“A Father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in His holy habitation.” Psalm 68:5
The JOY Series follows three sisters on a quest to
keep their parents’ legacy and dreams alive. Loaded with 19th century
Australian adventure, it’s a series full of intrigue for ages 12 and up!
