Riassunto

The first book in the SOLOMON'S SONG trilogy, from Australia's master storyteller. Ikey Solomon, 'Prince of Fences', is a nocturnal creature, brilliant, ruthless and quick-witted. Brothel mistress Hannah is his wife, sharp-tongued and amoral, whilst Mary is Ikey's sometime mistress, an expert with figures and survivor of tragedy. When Hannah and Mary are banished as criminals to Australia to pay their debt to society, they set about raising their separate families, both with the name of Solmon. Ikey, himself on the run, is drawn to the colony where the destinies of both family groups are locked together by his greed, Hannah's hate and Mary's ambition.
