Remember Me – Lesley Pearse

Description

Set in the late 18th century, Remember Me tells the unforgettable story of Mary Broad, a young Cornish woman whose life is dramatically changed after a single desperate act. Facing the brutal justice system of the time, she finds herself thousands of miles from home, part of the earliest wave of convicts sent to the new colony of Australia.

Drawing on true events, Lesley Pearse paints a vivid portrait of resilience, survival, and the pursuit of dignity in a harsh and unfamiliar land. This is a sweeping historical novel that captures the human spirit’s ability to endure even in the darkest of times—without revealing too much, it’s a deeply emotional journey that explores love, injustice, and redemption.
