Synopsis
Remember Me by Lesley Pearse – author of the bestsellers Never Look Back and Gypsy – is a historical novel based on the true story of transported convict Mary Bryant (née Broad).
She made a mistake and now she'll never see home again . . .
Mary, a Cornish mariner's daughter, makes the biggest mistake of her short life when she steals a silk hat. Convicted and sentenced to be transported to Australia, she endures horrific conditions aboard ship before landing in a brutal and barbaric country.
It will take all her courage just to survive.
But Mary is also determined to make something of herself in this rugged man's world. And she dreams that one day she will find a way of crossing the cruel seas that lie between her and home . . .
Based on a true story, Remember Me brings Mary Broad vividly to life in this moving story of a woman triumphing against overwhelming odds.

'This is the best book I have ever read. I read this book while I was on holiday and couldn''t put it down. I noted down a few of the character''s names and googled them when I returned home. I was fascinated to discover that the people were real and the story waz based on fact. I am now reading one of the books Leslie used for her research. Thank you so much for your wonderful books.'
