A superb, bittersweet story unlike any I have read before, exploring the dark side of family, relationships, and love.
A promise. A gift. A pact . . .
After the devastating stock market crash of 1929, Anna May Shahan receives a telegram from her cousin Lottie in America. Lottie has just lost her husband to suicide, and now wants to recover at Sugar Alexandria, the sprawling cattle station in the Outback she used to visit every summer as a teenager. Believing it to be a blessing from God, Anna welcomes her beloved Lottie with open arms, ecstatic they’ll now be reunited after a decade of being apart.
A provocative and intriguing tale told in the spirit of The Thorn Birds and The Piano.
Desperate to keep Lottie at the station permanently, Anna soon concocts a shocking plan after learning of her cousin’s unfulfilled desire, forcing her unwilling husband to join in. A promise is made, a precious gift given, and a lifelong pact forged with an oath to take it to their graves.
All seems well within their small family circle until one fateful afternoon when the lies are inadvertently exposed. Liam, the deaf, intellectually challenged young man living at the neighboring station has seen too much, becoming the key to opening Pandora’s box, obliterating Anna’s utopian world and the trinity she created. In rapid-fire, peaceful conditions abruptly deteriorate as a succession of events explode, bringing unforeseen pain and conflict, heartrending tragedy, and emotional transformation for the entire Shahan family.
The prose is decadent, the storyline mesmerizing. As an avid reader, I love when a story surprises me and is full of shining themes, poetic insights, and emotional metamorphoses of its characters. This is a novel I will definitely reread.
Lyrical and engaging; the best novel I have read in a while. A young Australian woman traps her would-be pianist husband into marriage, then years later, when she tries to manipulate him again, suffers terrible consequences as it backfires on her. You will not just read this book–you will consume it! Give yourself a gift and buy it.
Beautifully written and extremely emotional. You will fall in love with this story, I promise. It will make you laugh; it will make you cry; you will cheer for its characters and other times be upset by them, and some will endear themselves to you without fail. If you’re looking for an amazing book to lose yourself in, this is it! Once you start reading, you will not put it down. Five stars, over and over!
A gripping and intense story, taking you on an emotional rollercoaster. The Consequence of Anna is a masterpiece worthy of book clubs and the big screen.
