ISOLATION: NZ Historical fiction novel; based on fact
Inspired by a true story and based on fact, ISOLATION tells of newly wed colonists Meghan and James Morley, who travel from England to try their hand at high country sheep farming in NZ. The terrain, while stunning, is harsh and unforgiving, the living conditions tough and challenging. Meghan and James suffer many challenges that will test them to their limits.
Some early NZ settlers succeeded in their endeavors but many others did not survive the first 3 years.

About the author
Sue Towler
27 books2 followersI've been writing for most of my life in one form or another — but it took me thirteen years and thirteen rewrites before I finally published my first novel.
Since then, I've written eleven books, with another one due out soon. They include novels, short stories, travel stories, novellas and a children's book. Some stories come quickly, while others take years, but all of them are written for the same reason: a love of storytelling.
My life in New Zealand, along with my frequent trips to Australia, has influenced my writing over the years. The New Zealand high country and the Australian Outback are special places that make my heart sing. The stunning beauty of these varied landscapes often finds its way into my work.
When I'm not writing, I'm crafting, reading and getting involved in the community in one way or another.
My most successful novel, Isolation, was inspired by a true story and reflects my own family's connection to the early New Zealand settlers — a project that remains especially close to my heart.
These days, I continue to write, publish and explore new ideas — because stories, like life, are always evolving.
The pages that follow are the stories behind the stories I write. Each one has its own unique tale to tell.
