Cal Flyn was very proud when she discovered that her ancestor,
Angus McMillan, had been a pioneer of colonial Australia. However,
when she dug deeper, she began to question her pride. McMillan had
not only cut tracks through the bush, but played a dark role in
Australia's bloody history. In 1837 Angus McMillan left the
Scottish Highlands for the other side of the world. Cutting paths
through the Australian frontier, he became a feted pioneer, to be
forever mythologised in status and landmarks. He was also Cal
Flyn's great-great-great-uncle. Inspired by his fame, Flyn followed
in his footsteps to Australia, where she would face horrifying
family secrets. Blending memoir, history and travel,Thicker Than
Water' evokes the startlingly beautiful wilderness of the
Highlands, the desolate bush of Victoria and the reverberations on
one from the other. A tale of blood and bloodlines, it is a
powerful, personal journey into dark family history, grief and
guilt.
