The Eyes Have It

Carrie Lockhart is a young teacher in rural Australia, yearning for a fresh start after her beloved father dies suddenly. When at her most vulnerable, she finds herself caught up in a seedy and violent coercive-control relationship. When her sense of self-worth has all but crumbled, a mentor helps her find a way out.

Carrie escapes to a small rural community in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales. It is a beautiful, peaceful setting, where she has the soothing presence of her horse and dog. It is here that Carrie finally begins to overcome the trauma of her previous life. Will she ever trust another man with her heart?

Carrie’s story is at times brutal and confronting. Share the heartbreak, the pain, and the elation, as she takes on the courageous journey to rebuild her life.

She lives with her husband in a peaceful location in the Blue Mountains, in New South Wales. Much to her delight, a very large wombat has taken up residence on her small farm, and shares the pasture with kangaroos, echidnas, and Cheryl’s horses.
