When Jenefer moves to the old family home in country Kapunda, she uncovers a secret from the past. What sort of life did Gweniver, her great-great-great-grandmother, lead? And what connection did she have to the glamorous young singer, Zenna Dare? Could a nineteenth-century mother of nine have led a double life, and if so, why? In a story crossing five generations, from Cornwall and the old world to Australia and the new, Zenna Dare brings reconciliation in more ways than Jenefer could ever have imagined.
