Publishers Description: I do not think that anyone alive in our time will ever forget Ned Kelly, no matter who might wish us to do so. I know I never shall. Was he a hero Was he a villain I cannot say, even now. Perhaps he was neither. But he will live in my memory forever, the dark and the bright, together. North-east Victoria, 1879. Jamie Ross and his older sister Ellen are alone in the world after the death of their father. Determined to make their fortune, they head to Beechworth-and straight into the midst of the search for Ned Kelly, the most notorious bushranger of all time. Jamie is fascinated by Ned. Is he a hero wronged by the police, as some people say, or a cold-blooded murderer A chance encounter will bring Jamie closer to the answer than he could ever imagine.
