Nick Duncan is a semi-retired, wealthy shipping magnate who lives in idyllic Beautiful Bay, Vanuatu, where he is known as the old patriarch of the islands. He is grieving the loss of his beguiling Eurasian true love, Anna, and is suffering for the first time from disturbing flashbacks to the Second World War. So he puts pen to paper and tells the compelling tale of the life he has lived since his war-hero days. It's an adventurous life that has had at its heart the love of two passionate and unforgettablebut very differentwomen. The seductive Anna Til and the beguiling Marg Hamilton have spent a lifetime in contest for Nick's devotion. Nick remains torn between them, and struggles between their two opposing worlds of economic exploitation and environmental crusadeuntil he is called upon to referee... Moving between the exotic Pacific Islands, Japan and Australia, over several decades, FISHING FOR STARS is an epic drama of adventure, ambition and unconventional love, and the stunning sequel to Bryce Courtenay's best-selling THE PERSIMMON TREE. I hope you like Fishing for Stars it is a story of ambition, destruction, love, tears and laughter, with a soupon of hope thrown in.Bryce Courtenay
