Refugees have been part of our family life for as long as I’ve been married. Over the years, we’ve shared our home with people from Poland, China, Vietnam, and the Tamil community. The Egg Thief was inspired by one such encounter—a story born from the connections, struggles, and resilience of those seeking a new beginning.

Cut from the Land
Sydney Cove, 1813
Marcus, a young convict transported to Australia, steps off the ship into the raw, unsettled colony of New South Wales. Lodging with two servant girls, he learns to survive in a world shaped by power, ambition, and harsh divides.
Drawn to the knowledge and resilience of the Eora people, Marcus finds quiet connections that set him apart from other settlers. His carpentry skills bring him close to the colony’s elite, where he meets Elizabeth, a spirited young woman whose world collides with his.
Amid shipwrecks, shifting loyalties, and the brutal drive for land and cedar, Marcus must find his place in a colony built on both hope and dispossession. His journey is one of survival, conscience, and transformation.
