Db Daniel / Elise Chalet
These convicts weren’t villainous but tended to have committed theft and some were even involved in political protests. Australia was an ideal destination for such rebels and criminals of Britain as they were exiled to what seemed deserted land, a form of retribution and justice as the criminals suffered extreme weather, exposure to deadly creatures and the unknown land, 9,442 miles from what used to be home. Don’t think that you are better than these convicts--the prisoners that reside your towns. You have all committed crimes, crimes of hatred, crimes of jealousy, crimes of sin but yet you didn’t get caught. There are two roads--the road of destruction and the road of redemption. Be careful to walk on the right road. Pieter Van Dredte had thought highly of himself as he had navigated various ships across the world and yet he had found himself guilty of vanity. Helena Sinclair had stolen what she could from her parents as they disowned her for her scandalous relationship. This novel is about the transformation the Lord Jesus has on convicts. There are plenty of moral, Christian lessons taught. Although the novel serves to educate, I promise you that you will be drawn to laughter as well as tears. If you are a convict trapped by your sins, Jesus wants to invite you into His kingdom. Join the characters as they turn from convicts to converts. 3
