Kate Kelly grew up in a house of women: when the Kelly men were not in jail, they were outlaws. Kate's loyalty to her family becomes a bitter obsession: 'They were bent on destroying us - like a nest of rats the farmer comes on with his plough - not caring that they hurt women and children but only wanting to root us out completely.'
Inevitably the police take brutal revenge on the Kelly Gang at Glenrowan.
Kate must watch as the scorched body of her lover is strung up for public display.
Neither wandering nor marriage, time nor drink, can blot out this gruesome climax of her young life.
Until the ashes of their heroism turns her mind to darkness
