Shenkin's Legacy

It is 1878, the brutal end of the 19th century.

A dead father's name is scandalised.

His daughter is determined to protect his legacy.

The aristocratic head of the House of Feltsham is out to bring down their

business empire, whatever the cost.

A libel case is fought in the Old Bailey, with the winner taking all.

These events are played out in London, Sydney and Tasmania and across

turbulent seas during the days of sail and steam: the early days of suffrage

and votes for women; the harsh Victorian workhouses, that the poor of

society suffered.

If brutality and poverty is too strong for you, then don't read this book, it

will distress you. If not, then this is a fast-moving emotionally gut-

wrenching adventure.
