Sisters of the Southern Cross Audiobook

Queensland, Australia, 1936 Sister Claire McAuliffe has been called from Dungarvan, County Waterford, to do God’s work in Jumaaroo, Queensland. Along with four other sisters, she is charged with setting up a Catholic school for the education of the gold rush families. But life between the tropical Australian rainforest and the azure ocean is far from the spectacular paradise it seems.

As Claire learns of the manner in which the Bundagulgi are treated, she is forced to act, but nobody wants to upset the status quo, and a meddlesome nun suddenly is a dangerous one.

Perfect for fans of Maeve Binchy, Kristen Hannah, and lovers of Irish historical fiction, this sweeping Irish saga brings Irish faith and tradition to life against the unforgiving landscape of 1930s Australia.

Narrated by Siobhán Waring.
