"Philadelphia Gordon is an artist, a riverboat skipper, a beautiful dn independent woman.  This epic novel, set against the panoramic countryside and winding rivers of Australia, is her story, as powerful and unforgettable as its heroine.
Orphaned by a shipwreck that cuts her off forever from her native England, thirteen-year-old Delie is living in Australia with her indolent Uncle Charles, severe Aunt Hester and wonderful, handsome cousin, Adam.  here, on the banks of her beloved Murray river, she is idyllically happy - and in love with Adam."
