Kate: a strong-willed heiress determined to defy Edwardian convention. Odette: a fiercely independent and idealistic young journalist. Years apart yet inextricably linked by Zanana, the magnificent mansion they both love. From turn-of-the-century India to contemporary Sydney, The Last Rose of Summer is a spellbinding saga of love, possession, and intrigue; a story of bitter struggle and jealousy. Of two women connected across the decades by the men who love them and the magic of Zanana.

Wonderful story

This story touched my heart deeply. I just loved it. I actually remember a TV program years ago about people moving into and building wonderful, unique homes and creating a community in the small dairy farms area mentioned in the book. Many lived on the dole and called it useful use of the benefit. The timing in the story matches real life in that respect.
