In the summer of 1930, the last few dozen inhabitants of the lonely island of St. Kilda are evacuated. The government finds most of the islanders forestry jobs on the Scottish mainland. However, one of the leaders of the evacuation offers a young woman named Jenny a job on an industrialist's estate in South Wales. While living on the estate Jenny learns that the wealthy man's plans for her were fashioned by his mysterious mistress, a woman named Giovanna. Jenny proves to be too forceful a peronality to control, and she begins to discover the secrets of Giovanna's past and the woman's hold on her former lover.

John Carroll was apprenticed to the Department of Navy in 1959 at the age of 15 'to learn and exercise the art and occupation of Shipwright.' In 1962 he volunteered for service in the RANR, transferring to full-time service in the RAN in 1966.

He then served as a naval shipwright in HMAS Sydney 1967, posted by helicopter to HMAS Yarra 1967–68, returning to Sydney 1972-73. Both ships were deployed on operational service in Vietnamese waters during these periods.

He was admitted as an Associate of the Royal Institution of Naval Architects in 1971, and then as an Associate Member in 1989. He is a graduate of Hawthorn Institute of Education (Melbourne University), and Monash University.

He was admitted to the Australian Psychological Society as a Member in September 1993, and was also admitted as a Member of the North American Society of Adlerian Psychology. This book is based on his third doctoral dissertation.
