Publisher's Synopsis
A pebble is thrown into the quiet, still waters of an expansive lake, the effects of this single act radiating as ripples to the shores. Ripples intersecting with other concentric waves caused by yet another pebble.
Abbey Maddison was one such pebble. She might say that she was the first of a series of ripples to be set forth. A mother of four young boys, widowed and left destitute having to find a way to provide for her fledgling family.
The sliding doors of life open and close and she boldly steps through. It's a gamble she has to take. She leaves the bustling hive of Sydney and moves to the country town of Kilton, in the Central West of New South Wales being where she can afford to live and hopes to rebuild her life.
Country towns seem to city folk to be sleepy hollows, but every town has its intrigue and importance to a bigger picture.
Abbey becomes unwittingly embroiled in such an intrigue; the innocent pawn in a sinister game. Power, wealth and greed played on an international stage and a controversy that spans two generations of the local gentry.
Will she survive being tossed about, or drowned like another, as ripples roll her way....and where will they take her....to oblivion or the safety of the shore for she and her boys to live their life?
Ripple Effect is a page turner!. A fast-paced romantic drama set in rural, outback Australia.
