Transported across the world. Fate brought them together. Love saw them create a family as they witnessed the birth of a nation and the end of the convict system.

1841 - Amelia is living in poverty on the streets of Edinburgh but makes a plan to escape her lot and travel to the land of hopes and dreams that she keeps hearing about. Amelia witnesses Australia's most important textile, the Rajah quilt being given to Lady Jane Franklin in 1841.

Fate throws them together at the expansive colonial estate of Vron near Launceston in Van Diemen's Land. But on their path to happiness, they must face the cruelties and hardships of the convict system. They eventually become some of the first settlers of Bishopsbourne and witness the changing tide in colonial politics and the birth of a new nation.
