Julie Dundon and Barabbas

This is a tale of love, lust, hatred, and revenge set in Australia, Hong Kong, Macau, and Ireland. Julie Dundon, orphaned at a vulnerable age, goes to live with her eccentric uncle and aunt in Bridgetown, Western Australia. Some years later, she meets a young man originally from Bridgetown, Wexford, in the Republic of Ireland. Stephen Doyle is charming, witty, and devastatingly handsome. However, beneath the surface, he is carrying baggage from his past with disastrous consequences. Murder, mayhem, the Provisional IRA, Hong Kong triads, and Barabbas, a two-year-old Australian thoroughbred, inhabit this story of broken hearts, broken necks, and broken promises.
