All Fall Down
by Susan Geason
Set in Sydney in 1900 this story tells an exciting adventure located in the seedier parts of the city. When the son of a young serving girl disappears it is feared that his father, a wanted criminal has taken him. Fourteen-year-old Christabel, from a well off home but bored and lonely, decides to rescue him, with the help of stable boy Billy. This is a fast moving story, which gives a very realistic idea of what Sydney must have been like in those days.
