She had accepted Sally's many faults, and her reluctance to never speak of the past. But faced with this staggering deception, Alice knows she must uncover the whole truth about her mother. Este libro está basado en hechos reales. Y creanme que después de leerlo que se llevó un pedazo de mi corazón. No tengo palabras para describir el horror que sentí, el dolor y las lágrimas que derramé con esta historia y es que llegó un momento que por todo lloraba. Por la amistad de Mary con los aquellos hombres. Por la bondad de Boswell y Tench, por las pérdidas que sufrió Mary, Mary separándose de sus amigos. Todo es tan intenso. Mary es un personaje que llegas a admirar y más porque sabes que fue real, no puedo sino sentir admiración por ella y quiero pensar que todos aquellos amigos tuvieron su final feliz. In 1786 a fisherman's daughter from Cornwall called Mary Broad was sentenced to be hung for theft. But her sentence was commuted, and she was transported to Australia, one of the first convicts to arrive there. Deception is Lesley Pearse's 30th book. What an achievement! She's been a favourite of mine since the beginning and I think that Deception is the best of her most recent books. It has what I love about Pearse's books: the tough upbringing, the family dramas, and a thumping good storyline. Before starting this book, I didn’t know if I was going to be getting sad vibes, happy vibes or something in between and to be honest, I feel a mix up of all of the emotions after having finished. Following Alice’s journey into her mother’s past felt like I was experiencing all of the surprises along with her. It was certainly a reminder to me that we’re all just humans. We tend to hold our parents to such a high standard when in reality they make mistakes and bad decisions the same as anyone else.um livro bem dramático, mas muito bom. Uma história diferente do que é usual, baseada em factos verídicos (o que a torna ainda mais dramática e empolgante). Gostei bastante da escrita desta autora. El libro nos habla sobre una chica llamada Mary que la encierran por haber intentado robar, pero en esos tiempos los presos eran esclavos y los trataban horrible, sufrian mucho y lo peor es que estaban todos mezclados, entonces ya se imaginaran las cosas horribles que vivían algunos. A Mary junto con otro presos planean se la llevan a Australia y se convirtió en una de las primeras exitosas escapadas de la incipiente colonia penal de Australia. Thank you to @michaeljbooks and Lesley Pearse for this advanced copy of Deception in return for an honest review.

I really liked Alice, mostly due to her ability to be rational and level headed. No matter what she found out, she always seemed to be able to keep calm and understand things from her mother’s perspective. Not only that but she carried the burden of this on behalf of her younger sister and her dad to protect them. It was interesting to read about Alice realising that some of her own character traits were inherited from her mother. I get all my books from the charity shops Vanessa and majority of them I read them only once and pass them on too. O livro acompanha a história de Mary Broad, uma jovem que foi condenada a forca por ter roubado um chapéu, mas a qual lhe é dada a oportunidade de ir para a Austrália durante 7 anos. No entanto, onde podemos julgar que a sua vida lhe poderia ser mais fácil, Mary depara-se com muitas dificuldades. Remember Me is the title of the true story of Mary Broad, a woman sentenced of deportation by theft to Australia, in a reintegration project founded by England to populate this area. Mary was known as the first person to organise and participate in a well-succeeded escape from the penal colony. In that escape there were her husband, seven men and her two small children besides her. They were able to travel through around 5 000kms on a sailing boat in open sea. The book follows the protagonist since she leaves her parents’ house until the moment of the theft, including the violent boat trip, the horror in Australia, the intricate escape, the death of the children, her husband and people she considered family among other problems.

Retailers:

Mary, a Cornish mariner's daughter, makes the biggest mistake of her short life when she steals a silk hat. Antes de mais, há que dar os parabéns ao responsável da editora original que aprovou este título, capa e sinopse para esta história. E sim, estou a ser sarcástica. I loathed Sally at the start of Deception, but as she transmogrified into her different personas and Alice found out more about her, I felt I had come to know a real woman. Her life choices may have been forced upon her, unwisely chosen or even criminal, but what Lesley Pearse does so well is to show the reader why Sally behaved as she did so that there’s a reality to her actions and an understanding In the reader. Personally, I found "Deception" to be thoroughly enjoyable. Lesley Pearse’s work is a definite recommendation if you have an affinity for crime and mystery genres.
