      The beautiful old sandstone building which was originally built for a completely different reason, was later used as a very popular dance hall.Most people were unaware that under the main building was a secret chamber which was utterly soundproofed, and was accessible through a thick door, and down a spiral staircase.The chamber remained locked for years, until someone found some keys, and it was put to a new purpose altogether.It became very popular with those who knew of its existence, but when Sam Parker became involved, he changed the rules, and the chamber became his private playground, with disastrous consequences for those who were taken there.

    • After writing my first book, Dominant Female, I often thought of one character who seemed to have a separate story she wanted to tell. She was abandoned as a baby and grew up in an orphanage, but after some trouble she ran away. She was subjected to abuse from her partner who was knifed and died in prison, but for reasons she was never able to understand, she was befriended by a woman who eventually became her best friend, and her life improved as her children grew up. Unbeknown to her, her mother had always worried where her daughter was, and if she ever thought of her, and what she may have been told about her. Her mother then began to speak out. She became an advocate for the stolen generations movement, and during a television program she spoke for the first time about her lost child.
