An Australian Historical novel set in the days of Governor Lachlan Macquarie
The story of the Holey Dollar and Dump currency
Sydney Cove, early 1808 to 1822
***Captain Rudi Greenwood is a solitary man, trapped in a pointless job in a colony where alcohol is currency and rules are easily ignored in the pursuit of wealth. He is on the verge of ending his monotonous life.
Bethany Edwards, a grieving widow expecting her late husband's child, slowly begins to change from her grief because of her encounters with the handsome but brooding soldier. As she turns to Rudi for help and support, she must face what she truly feels. Will her faith reach a man who believes in nothing, or will his lack of belief keep them apart?
Drawn to Bethany, Rudi is forced to question his cynicism and imagine a different future. When Governor Lachlan Macquarie asks for his help improving the colony's roads, an offhand remark from Rudi sparks an idea that could reshape the settlement: a new currency to challenge the power of alcohol. Will Rudi accept the governor's challenge-and what bold choice will make him despised by both the exclusives and the free settlers?
