First Sentence

"BEYOND a desolate shore, on the edge of a far-off country, in a land of massy fern and flightless birds, a small surf-boat appeared, cutting through the swell and spray."

Work Description

Ada, a mute mail-order bride sent to New Zealand finds herself attracted to George, her new husband's neighbor when he rescues her beloved piano after her husband forces her to abandon it on the beach. Her arrangement to teach George to play the piano turns into a passionate affair, with disastrous consequences.
