Born in Canberra in 1944, Elizabeth grew up under the shadow of her father, Sir Frederick Wheeler, a man destined for one of the highest offices in Australia. To the outside world, her family appeared accomplished and respectable. In reality, this exterior hid a childhood scarred by abuse and maintained by silence — abuse that distorted her sense of self and her understanding of love.
As Elizabeth steps into adulthood, the wounds of her past resurface in the form of fragile mental health and fractured relationships. Then, at her father’s wake, she makes an unexpected and disturbing discovery — one that reveals hidden truths about her father’s dark side.
With raw honesty, courage, and humour, Elizabeth shares her remarkable story. She also issues a vital call: for survivors to speak out, for loved ones to listen, and for silence to no longer protect perpetrators.
Available from 1st December

In Flights of the Mind Lorraine James brings to life everyday experiences and common memories, with stories straddling the twentieth century up to the present. Seen through the daily struggles of individuals and families, the self-satisfaction of the wealthy, the hopes of the downtrodden, joys of beachside holidays, and, as a bonus, the unfolding of familiar characters, she creates a colourful literary mosaic.
Lorraine writes with a keen eye, perfectly capturing the nuances of time, class, gender and culture, a true gem.
