The Secret Fate of Mary Watson - Judy Johnson

The Secret Fate of Mary Watson by Judy Johnson is a gripping historical novel set in 1879 Queensland, Australia. The story follows 19-year-old Mary Oxnam, who escapes her oppressive family home in Rockhampton with limited prospects and no connections. Plain and penniless, she relies on her audacious wit and fierce intelligence to survive. Mary soon finds work as a pianist in a Cooktown brothel, which serves as a cover for her more lucrative employment as a spy investigating smuggling operations. As she becomes entangled in a world of secrets, spies, and smugglers, Mary dreams of earning enough money to live on her own terms, far from the murky world of espionage. However, as the plot she is involved in unravels, she must navigate perilous situations on a remote Australian island. Based on the true story of a remarkable woman and her intriguing diary, this novel offers a thrilling tale of peril and intrigue, infused with a heady combination of beauty and foreboding.
