Girl of Shadows

Harper Collins, 2013. Some shelf wear.
1830: Convict girls Friday Woolfe, Harriet Clarke and Sarah Morgan are working off their sentences in Sydney Town. Each of them is struggling to forget the brutal crime they committed. But their fate is no longer theirs to control. Vicious underworld queen Bella Jackson holds the girls? futures in the palm of her hand, biding her time until she exacts payment for what she knows about their misdeeds.

Harriet, racked with guilt, becomes convinced that their lost friend is haunting them, and while Friday succumbs to the bottle, Sarah has to fight for everything she holds dear. Once again, the girls must join forces to save one of their own. But which one?
